I'm trying to install ati drivers, but I fins and error:

But I have my kernel, conf and MAkefile in /usr/src/linux:

This listing is not a complete kernel set. Did you do a emerge 
--depclean lately?

Reemerge you kernel ebuild and do a make oldconfig to be sure.

Then try it again.

I'm with r6 and gentoo-sources is at r10, is it important? do Ihave to

It looks like /usr/src/linux points to newly installed kernel sources on
which you have not run make *config yet.

Depclean seems to delete some parts of the kernel directory if you have 
a newer kernel ebuild available. Had that too, once.
Which release you use r6 or r10 is your choise. r10 is newer with more 
security patches and such, so i would say you should use that one.

Do you know how to deal with a kernel update?

yes, yes, but I wanted to test ati drivers compilation before
recompiling the kernel and rebooting...

anyway, as I have to open my computer for changing video-card, going to
build new kernel an then, ati-drivers.

I don't know the HD3850 card.

From the x11-drivers/ati-drivers-9.10 FAQ
2. Which ATI graphics cards can use this driver? 

The ATI Proprietary Linux driver currently supports RADEON 8500 and later, 
as well as FireGL 8700 and later products. We do not currently plan to include
support for any products earlier than this.
Drivers for earlier products should already be available from the DRI Project 
or Utah-GLX project.

Here, I have a Readon HD 3300 (onboard) and xorg-server-1.6.5 .
Using the x11-drivers/ati-drivers-9.10 graphics is really fast
including googleearth.

But, as noted earlier, these ati-drivers don't work with
xorg-server-1.7.1

Don't worry, your card is supported by catalyst 9.10, will be supported by

Just use the ati-drivers package - and patch xorg so it won't suck in 2d.

I download xorg-server-1.6.3.901-with-patch.tar. Unpack it in

write No matches found. And emerge - !!!
'xorg-server-1.6.3.901-r99' is not a valid package atom.

and /usr/local/portage is your overlay directory?

try

I had not /usr/local/portage, only /usr/portage. I make
/usr/local/portage and unpack files.

yeah, unpacking in /usr/portage is completly wrong. Just follow the
instructions.

I strictly follow the instructions. But emerge: there are no ebuilds
to satisfy =x11-base/xorg-server-1.6.3.901-r99.

So then pick the version that you DO have that's closest.

Because obviously the instructions are telling you to install a very
recent unstable version, and you equally obvious do not have that anymore
as things have changed since the instructions were written.

I have 1.6.3.901-r2 now. And trying 1.6.3.901-r99. eix don`t show any
version in /usr/local/portage

just because you unpack sopmething somewhere does not make eix know about it.
It only knows about it after the next sync/emerge.

You didn't answer his question.

Tip: There's big capital letters in it.

Another tip: If we wrote code the way you answered questions in this thread, 
the code would never run. You have to answer questions with facts around here 
if you want help.

I'm no ATI expert (at all - haven't used an ATI card since the 9700 days),
but the above dmesg line would indicate that the GPU itself hung - maybe a
BIOS/FW update (since this GPU is integrated on the MB) would be a good idea
to try? It still, of course, could be a driver issue - if the driver is
sending bad commands and getting the GPU into an invalid state, this could
happen, but my first thought would be that it is a FW or HW issue...

Apparently not. The conflict lies in the ati drivers and you will have to wait 
for ATI to support xorg-1.7 before upgrading.

There's a bug  on b.g.o. which I read last night that has more info. Search 
for xorg-server, it's near the end of the list (clearly marked)

There's a thread in the forum as well. Searching for fglrx it's the first
one right now, though it's titled towards nvidia. But just look inside.
there are instructions on how to revert back. However, the following rule
always holds true if you are using fglrx (and to some extent, the nvidia
driver): before updating your system, check if there's any important update
for X, and if so, please, always triple check in the forum and the web that
the new X release is supported by your drivers.

At least for fglrx, this is almost never true so the regular procedure is
to mask the packages that are about to be updated, and check again when a
new ati-drivers revision is in place.

Well, it's truly not for the newbie, but it's not complicated either.
After all, you are using ~arch, so.

 The nvidia drivers sensibly block the latest xorg-server.

That's what blockers are for: they prevent incompatible packages from
being installed together, right? So you can choose what action of course
you want to follow. At least your system keeps working instead of throwing

[gentoo-user] ati-drivers + DRM anybody?

2009-10-12 Thread Helmut Jarausch

Hi,

has anybody had success with ati-drivers + DRM ?

(Without DRM ,i.e. 2.6.31-gentoo-r2 w/o DRM + x11-drivers/ati-drivers-9.9-r2
 works just fine.)

I have the  2.6.31-r2 kernel with 
  devices-drivers/Graphic support/Direct Rendering Manager/ATI Radeon
  (I have an ATI Radeon HD 3300 onboard graphics chip)

x11-drivers/ati-drivers-9.9-r2

but this fails. 

What am I missing, or isn't it assumed to work?

Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut.

it does not work. It never did and it won't work in the near future. You try 
to have two drivers for the same hardware - that naver works.

So, how to get 3D acceleration?

ati-drivers don't need kernel dri for 3d acceleration. Just emerge the 
drivers, set up xorg.conf to load it - or run aticonfig --initial, eselect 
opengl set ati and you are done.

Pretty much as described as in the guide.

[gentoo-user] ati-drivers to radeon

2009-09-21 Thread James

Hello,


Currently, on an old laptop I have this chip:
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc 
Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955 (PCIE) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])   
  

using ati-drivers, all if fine with:

 xorg-server-1.5.3-r5   
 
 ati-drivers-8.593  
 
 xorg-x11-7.4   
 
 linux - linux-2.6.28-gentoo-r5/ 

I want to convert to the open-source radeon driver


I'm not finding instruction docs (except very old) so here's
what I have found to do.

edit /etc/make.conf:

VIDEO_CARDS=radeon vesa
(I keep vesa for a backup)

emerge -C ati-drivers

run 'qlist -I -C x11-drivers/'

and rebuild the list of supporting drivers?
reboot

???  that simple or did I miss something?


It seems like there use to be a conversion guide,
but, no luck finding that doc. Once I get the radeon
driver working, I was then going to update X. However,
since I'm keeping this system on kde 3.5.x, until
kde4 is stable (at least on this laptop), 
or should I wait on upgrading X?


comments are welcome

Yes, change your xorg.conf. Change 'Driver fglx' to 'Driver radeon'.

[gentoo-user] ati-drivers and 2.6.31 ?

2009-09-10 Thread Helmut Jarausch

Hi,

is there a patch for the ati-driver together with the new 2.6.31 kernel?

Currently I get (ati-drivers-9.8)
Kernels newer then 2.6.30 are not supported by this driver

Thanks for an info,
Helmut.

Try ati-drivers-8.660. It's ati-drivers-9.10-alpha in disguise. Ubuntu
got ATI to give them some working drivers for Karmic. Scarabeus then put
them in the tree, but used the old versioning scheme to distinguish
them from the normal releases.

Ugh, that's quite disturbing. All these version scheme dances are
anything but practical. If there's no new release we should be using
9.8-r1 or whatever fits, just like in any other package.

Otherwise, when .31 hits the tree we are going to need to mask
ati-drivers and unmask that concrete version.

and both are busy. You really don't need to bother them. There are bugs open 
about it. If you want to be helpfull, become a dev. But telling them that the 
stable drivers are outdated doesn't help them.

Re: [gentoo-user] Ati-drivers emerge fails.

1. This is a fresh install from 2008.0 with no previous drivers.
2. How can i get access to fix this in Portage? (Since that's  the
underlying issue).
3. Do we know who maintains this (ATI has a member but are they on this
list?).

Abviously,

Since they are both busy then this needs attention.
