Yes, I do have load "dri" in my xorg.conf, yes I do have the permissions set correctly for it. I have noDRI set to "no". I have tried this with and without dri compiled into the kernel. Here is the relevant part of my xorg.log:
| Code: | (II) fglrx(0): [drm] register handle = 0xe9000000
(EE) fglrx(0): [agp] unable to acquire AGP, error "xf86_ENOMEM"
(EE) fglrx(0): cannot init AGP
(II) fglrx(0): [drm] removed 1 reserved context for kernel
(II) fglrx(0): [drm] unmapping 8192 bytes of SAREA 0xe1887000 at 0xb7d3d000
(WW) fglrx(0): ***********************************************
(WW) fglrx(0): * DRI initialization failed! *
(WW) fglrx(0): * (maybe driver kernel module missing or bad) *
(WW) fglrx(0): * 2D acceleraton available (MMIO) *
(WW) fglrx(0): * no 3D acceleration available *
(WW) fglrx(0): ********************************************* *

I have a Radeon 9200 PCI. The thing is that I was having this same problem before I installed the new ati drivers. I don't know what's wrong. Anybody have any ideas? |

If you're using the drivers own AGP support ("UseInternalAGPGART" is "yes"), try setting "UseInternalAGPGART" to "no", which will tell it use the kernels AGP support. Remember to load the kernel AGP modules first.

Well, I have a PCI video card so I haven't got any AGP stuff going on at all. I believe I have UseInternalAGPGART set to no already, but I will look again. Thanks! |

Sorry, I didn't see that last line in your first post. Did you manage to get DRI working with the previous version of the ati-drivers? I remember you had a lot of trouble with it. Did you change anything when you upgraded? Have you tried the kernel DRI support at all?

I did have DRI working previously, but not well. I didn't quite know what I was doing at the time (much like now), so I had emerged the ati-drivers but had never done the opengl-update. I could get UT2004 to run (which is the goal of all this) but at like 1 fps (seriously 1). On top of that, for some reason enabling dri seemed to cause refresh rate fluctuations that turned off my monitor. So I turned off DRI and decided to wait for the new drivers before I gave it another go. Ever since then, I have not been able to turn DRI back on. I've followed your Radeon FAQ (nice job by the way!), using the recommended kernel settings, etc, but it has made no difference.
Do you think it's possible that it's like the error message says and there's something wrong with my libdri.a file? If so, how does one fix that? |

Which error message did you get that mentioned libdri.a? From what application?

Well, nothing mentioned it explicitly, but I took the error message I posted to mean there might be a problem with libdri.a. If it helps, here's what it says when I try to start UT2004
| Code: | bash-2.05b$ ut2004
WARNING: ALC_EXT_capture is subject to change!
Couldn't set video mode: Couldn't find matching GLX visual
History:
Exiting due to error
bash-2.05b$
|
Of course, this is probably because of the dri: no, so it probably does not help. |

Do you have any errors or warnings earlier in your Xorg log (before the ones you posted above)?

Well, I can't find any obvious errors, but here's the part right before the DRI error. Dunno if any of this is helpful. It seems to want XFree86 but since I have Xorg, I figured it was irrelevant that it can't find the XFree version. The other thing I notice is that I seemed to have this DDC module compiled into the kernel, so I'll try it without that. Thanks again man.

Yes, you can ignore that.

| Ok, I'm almost at the pack-in point. I have found other people who got the same message, but their problem is either not the same as mine or they didn't find a solution. It's a total stumper. I know the video card works because I have a dual boot system and it works fine on Windows. Weird. |

I've suggested this before, but you maybe missed it - have you tried using the kernel radeon driver? It definitely has PCI support and will work with a Radeon 9200.
