X performance used
to be surprisingly good on 5.5.
I note the following lines in Xorg.0.log:
[ 56.517] (--) RADEON(0): Chipset: "ATI Radeon Mobility 7000 IGP 4437"
(ChipID = 0x4437)
[ 56.519] (II) RADEON(0): GPU accel disabled or not working, using shadowfb
for KMS
fw_update reports no updates, (it does list a couple radeon entries as it
checks for firmware).
Any clues as to what may be the issue here? Is this fixable?
Hi Jason,
i can confirm this issue, though i have no idea how to fix it. I also
use an ATI card (HD 4250), but mine is supported and used with KMS.
I've noticed this quite a while ago, but it doesn't bug me that much
using a tiling wm.
Regards
Nils
