ATI Proprietary Radeon Display Drivers 8.13.3 for Linux (Radeon XPress)

linuxrocks123 · Jun 21, 2005, 10:18 PM

Hello. I have a problem iwth the Radeon Xpress drivers and I was hoping someone could help. I'm using Slackware-current (XOrg 6.8.2) and tried to install the ATI proprietary drivers for the Radeon Xpress 200M graphics card on my HP Pavilion zv6000 laptop. I'm using a custom-compiled 2.6.11.11 kerne. After patching the drivers with some patches found on th8is forum for 8.12.10, the drivers do compile and I'm able to get 3D acceleration. However, after stopping and restarting the X server, my computer freezes. At first I thought this was an issue with the kernel, but I had a similar situation when using unpatched 8.13.3 drivers and the stock Slackware 2.4 kernel. I'm beginning to think this is a bug with the driver. Has anyone been able to get the 8.13.3 drivers working correctly? Has anyone else had a problem similar to mine. Most importantly, how do I fix this?

Thanks in advance for your help.

8.13.4 drivers were posted recently. You may want to try them

I cannot guarantee that it will fix your issue in 2.6.11-11, but I remember verifying that a similar behaviour was fixed in 2.6.9 with this driver.

hope it helps.

After installing the update for 8.13.4 (and applying the patches in the 8.12.10 forum to make the driver work with 2.6.11), I no longer have this problem. The release notes for 8.13.4 acknowledge this as a "Resolved Issue."

Thanks for your help and for fixing the drivers

Does 3D work for you? I have installed the driver but can't get the 3d working correctly. I have the resolution right though

At least something works.

kajeandra, could you provide some more details?
dmesg and X log might help us to figure out what's going on with your 3D.

I have a compaq R4000 AMD 64, with Xpress 200M, suse 9.3, kernel 2.6.11.4-21.7-default

After installing ATI driver fglrx64_6_8_0-8.13.4-1.x86_64.rpm, modifying /lib/modules/fglrx/buid/agpgart_be.c (change all instances of pci_find_class to pci_get_class) and applying the mentioned patches (in that order) I get it recognizing mi ATI Xpress 200M, which is a nice step forward. However, I can't get 3D working. DRI initialization fails:

X-windows work but veeery slow. fglrxinfo shows the Mesa libraries are still taken control, bad!

display: :0.0 screen: 0

OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.2.1)

I did use the --force option when installing the ATI driver, so I guess there are some other subtilities around. In a different thread rgregory pointed us to a solution, but it seems not to work in my case. Eventually others have been able to make everything running on the same machine using other Distros,e.g., Ubuntu, see here, but I haven't found anyone reporting it to work on Suse9.3.
Any hints? any new success stories around?
Thanks!

masanlop, when you modprobe fglrx, do you see ny error messages in dmesg?

kajeandra, make sure that your agpgart is loaded. In 2.6 kernels, agpgart has two parts.
1) agpgart.ko (obvious)
2) AGP backend (not so obvious i.e. amd64-agp.ko, etc.)
(look in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/char/agp for others)

SuSE 9.3 is one of our test platforms. You should not require any patches on SuSE to my knowledge (we don't use them on our test machines).

Hope it helps.

Hello rgregory,

Since my last post, I have been able to load the module. But Mesa is still in control. Similar to what masanlop has.

I see what you mean kajeandra. agpgart seems to be loading fine, and the fglrx module is loading.

When you installed the driver, did you force overwite? I'm just wondering if X is still picking up mesa's libGL. Do you have any other display drivers installed - nVidia or dri.sf.org perhaps?

Failing that, you could look through the X log for clues.

hope it helps.

Hello robert,

This is a Compaq R4025CA laptop and therefore, I only have one videocard. I used the force option when I installed the fglrx drivers too. It's a really strange problem. I have to keep switching into windows to play games. I love linux and it would be great if everthing worked there then I can get rid of the bugzilla windows.....

Thanks,
Kajeandra

Kajeandra, just a thought... try the following command:

LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose fglrxinfo

It might explain where your system is picking up libGL

So use the standard "radeon" driver included with every XFree86/Xorg build. You don't need fglrx if you don't need 3D.
