Hi all,

I have two major problems with my 9600 ATI (RV350) graphic card

- With the free radeon driver (x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.12.1-r1) :
After few minutes, while emerging or working with some software (Gimp),
%CPU increases and then X completely freezes. Then reset... :-(

- The proprietary ATI driver (x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.582) can't
compile with gentoo-sources-2.6.28-r4.
It asks me to set CONFIG_PCI_MSI=y in the kernel config.
But there is no CONFIG_PCI_MSI line in the .config !!!

    

Is CONFIG_PCI=y present?

If set to =n the all PCI things are not configured...

CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI=y should also be there, for this an internal 
check if your platform has the possibility to use MSI.

  
Any idea that would help me ?
    

Maybe a make menuconfig could be a little more informative for you.

  
Thank you very much,

    

Sebastian

#CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI is not set, and i don't see the line in make menuconfig.
I suppose i have to select another option to make it appear, but i can't find the good one...

Thanks
