Indeed, DRI does not work for the shared memory Radeons with free driver. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium = Wishlist -- direct rendering missing on ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M https://launchpad.net/bugs/36314 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

..not working in feisty. For now, use ati's fglrx drivers if you want dri. Until ATI posts enough info to make useful open-source drivers, or until the hardware has been figured out in some other way, we'll need to use the proprietary ones. If you want to use beryl/compiz, check out xgl. Not as nice as AIGLX, but still decent. If you're buying new hardware, buy nvidia or intel. -- direct rendering missing on ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M https://launchpad.net/bugs/36314 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Timothy: please test Feisty beta when it is available next week to see if DRI works. -- direct rendering missing on ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M https://launchpad.net/bugs/36314 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 36314] Re: direct rendering missing on ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M
The wishlist can be marked in the Importance column by the package owners, so no need to close this. Furthermore, this should stay open as long as the support is not in the open source driver (xserver-xorg- video-ati), whether or not there are closed drivers installed by default. The proprietary drivers won't be used by default in feisty, as it was decided recently. The decision might change for feisty+1, but probably only so that it affects the newest Radeons (X1300 - X1950 or newer). Those don't have even 2D support out-of-the-box because ATI/AMD has not allowed the already-written 2D driver to be published (written under NDA). Meanwhile, anyone purchasing new hardware should consider Intel's offerings and Intel's integrated graphics (GMA 950, GMA X3000), to which open source drivers are developed together with the vendor and the community. It could also be hoped that ATI would change its policies now that it was acquired by AMD. -- direct rendering missing on ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M https://launchpad.net/bugs/36314 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

If this is a wishlist item (see previous comment), should we mark this report as rejected? Or should we leave it open for testing under Feisty, since proprietary drivers will be available? -- direct rendering missing on ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M https://launchpad.net/bugs/36314 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 36314] Re: direct rendering missing on ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M
Will the proprietary drivers be available by default after install? I opened the bug report initially because the card didn't work out of the box.

[Bug 36314] Re: direct rendering missing on ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M
It does not work because AMD / ATI have not given out the information with which the integrated ATI graphics could be supported in 3D. So this is more like a wishlist item in importance. -- direct rendering missing on ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M https://launchpad.net/bugs/36314 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
