|
|
Hello all,
I'm fairly new to Gentoo, and so far I've successfully got KDE installed with xorg-x11, and have successfully got 3D acceleration to work with my ATI Radeon Mobility X600. I've followed the HowTo for ATI drivers located at http://rafb.net/paste/results/0R0zdM65.html to the letter, and am successfully getting 3D acceleration.
However, the issue I'm getting, is that since I emerged the ati-drivers and set everything up, my fonts in KDE look at least 2 or 3 sizes bigger, yet, they still register as being set to the same size. In fact, it appears that my resolution is not correctly setting itself to 1920x1200, as everything looks a bit bigger, not just the fonts. However, the resolution registers as being set to 1920x1200 under the "Configure Desktop" menu, and this displayed correctly before I setup the ATI drivers. Going along with this, I'm curious as to if anyone has ran into this before and could perhaps point me in the right direction? It may, or may not be, related to the second issue I'm experiencing:
The second issue, is that when X is running, the following is spammed to the console, and is displayed when I end the X session:
| Code: | X Error: (Bad Window) Invalid Window Parameter 3

If anyone could take a gander, and perhaps point me in the right direction, it'd be most appreciated! I found 1 other post that looks like it might deal with this issue, however, the Google translation of the page into English is not the best. It is located at http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=de&u=http://www.gentooforum.de/lastpost/8709/Probleme-mit-dem-Display-und-K.html&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dkded:%2BERROR:%2BKMilo:%2BDellI8KMonitor:%2Bioctl%2Bfailed%2Bin%2Bfn_status()%26hl%3Den%26hs%3DCzC%26lr%3D%26client%3Dfirefox%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:unofficial
Thank you much in advance. If I can provide any more helpful information, please let me know!

Hello all,
Partially resolved - the spammed Dell related text was resolved by removing "Dell Laptop Support" from my kernel and recompiling. Still getting the incorrect resolution and "Bad Window" message when I exit X, though.Anyone have any thoughts? Many thanks all! |
