Hi, I managed to build xf86-video-ati-6.9.0 in my copy of the FOX gate. Some upstreamed patches had to be removed and I added in the patch suggested by Ken Mays for Ati 4850 support. In addition radeon_drv calls functions in theatre_drv after loading that module which caused link failure due to the "-z defs" flags set by default. Had to change that to "-z nodefs".
I can't test since I do not have a system with ATI card. So can you try testing these drivers ? You can download the binary tarball from: http://www.belenix.org/binfiles/new_ati.tar.bz2 Then change directory to /usr/X11/lib/modules Take a backup of the following files: drivers/amd64/ati_drv.so drivers/amd64/radeon_drv.so multimedia/amd64/theatre_detect_drv.so multimedia/amd64/theatre_drv.so multimedia/amd64/theatre200_drv.so Finally extract the tarball in the same directory. It will overwrite these files. Regards, Moinak.
