I have a laptop with ATI integrated graphics. lspci shows the graphics
card as:
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS485 [Radeon
Xpress 1100 IGP]
I have been unsuccessful in getting X configured to work with this card
with dri enabled. I followed the guides at:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/ati-faq.xml
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/dri-howto.xml
and I've also Googled for a week with no success. With the x11 drivers
installed, I get this error message when starting X:
(EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable
I've emerged ati-drivers and set make.conf to include the fglrx driver
as suggested in the ATI guide. However when loading the fglrx.ko
module, I get an error about "...taints the kernel". Thus I suspect I
have some option set in my kernel that conflicts with the fglrx module?
I'm at a loss. Can some kind soul please point me in the right
direction toward the steps needed to get 3D acceleration on my laptop?
Should I be using x11 or ATI drivers? And if ATI drivers, any idea what
is might be conflicting in my kernel?
Thanks,
Drew
