** Summary changed:
- jockey does not offer fglrx for ATI Radeon Mobility 9700
+ r3xx Hardware does not work with fglrx
** Description changed:
- I am using 8.10 beta updated only a few minutes before this filing
- report. I was expecting jockey to offer fglrx for my Radeon Mobility
- 9700 but it does not. I know that the fglrx driver does support this
- card. I have the following packages installed:
+ Using fglrx-installer 2:8.543-0ubuntu4, r3xx hardware such as Radeon
+ 9500, Mobility Radeon 9700 and similar don't work.
- jockey-gtk 0.5~beta2-0ubuntu3
- fglrx-modaliases 2:8.543-0ubuntu1
+ They are not explicitly listed in the modaliases, so they will not be
+ offered by Jockey. In the past, this hardware did work with the fglrx
+ driver. Now the fglrx driver indicates memory errors when trying to
+ load.

driver. Now the fglrx driver indicates memory errors when trying to
load.

+ Here is a snippet of what the memory error will look like:
+ [ 1024.699204] [fglrx] Maximum main memory to use for locked dma buffers:
1169 MBytes.
+ [ 1024.700616] [fglrx:drm_alloc] *ERROR* [driver] Allocating 0 bytes
+ [ 1024.700683] [fglrx:firegl_init_device_list] *ERROR* Out of memory when
allocating device heads
+ [ 1024.700757] [fglrx:firegl_init_module] *ERROR* firegl_init_devices failed
