 Posted: Mon Dec 03, 2007 9:55 pm Post subject: New User: Can't get ATI drivers working using guide [SOLVED] |
 |
|
I've done some research through the forums and using the guide on the website concerning setting up the ATI drivers, but it doesn't seem to be working. I took it upon myself to look around xorg.conf to see if I can see anything inherently wrong and I can't find anything that stands out.
Essentially what I'm trying to do is set a widescreen resolution of 1440x900. The default xorg.conf works but won't touch 1440x900. I'll post it below:

Now, below I'll post the config file generated by aticonfig. Again, I can't find anything wrong with it at first glance, but maybe I'm missing something.

Whenever I try to run this, it produces this error:
| Code: | Fatal server error:
no screens found
XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"
after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining. |
The order in which I did things was, first I emerged xorg and tested it, then attempted to set the widescreen resolution I'm looking for (1440x900). After an unsuccessful attempt, I emerged ati-drivers, ran eselect opengl set ati, then ran aticonfig. After looking over everything and comparing the two configs, I can't seem to figure this out. I'm sure someone here has had this happen to them before.
Any help would be appreciated 
John
EDIT: If it's at all pertanant, I have a Radeon HD 2600XT using PCI-Express

Yes!!! For sure! I had a lot of trouble with an ATI card too. It is very unhappy to have an ATI video card if you're a Linux user. At the end I bought a new nVidia card, that is definitely better. Its price was about 50$ dollars or less (66€ in Italy - I guess you may find it at a lower price) and the model is GeForce 7300 GT, so I suggest you to buy a new one and to sell the old one on eBay!!!
Anyway, as far as I am concerned, when I had an ATI card I didn't use ati-drivers. I emerged the x11-base/xorg-x11 package, setting my VIDEO_CARDS="radeon" in my make.conf (if I remember correctly). No way to get it working using Direct rendering even though I emerged ati-drivers. That was another reason why I trashed my old ati card. With nVidia you won't never have problems! I hope this helps you.
Bye!

check fglrx module with:
lsmod | grep fglrx

I don't know much but I guess you may want to try
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
in Device section. |

Well, the thing of it is, it works on PCI:2:0:0 :-\
Here's something that I just noticed.
| Code: | Section "Device"
### Available Driver options are:-
### Values: <i>: integer, <f>: float, <bool>: "True"/"False",
### <string>: "String", <freq>: "<f> Hz/kHz/MHz"
### [arg]: arg optional
#Option "ShadowFB" # [<bool>]
#Option "DefaultRefresh" # [<bool>]
#Option "ModeSetClearScreen" # [<bool>]
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "vesa"
VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc"
BoardName "Unknown Board"
BusID "PCI:2:0:0"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "aticonfig-Device[0]"
Driver "fglrx"
EndSection |
In the first device, it identifies a BusID, where the second one doesn't. I assume the whole VendorName and BoardName are irrelevant. Maybe it's confused because it doesn't know where to pipe video to and that is why it's taking a dump? I'll have to try modifying it and seeing if it works. If all else fails I'll re-emerge x with the radeon USE flag for now, since apparently that works, but just doesn't accelerate. |

ONly the device section that is linked in the Screen Section( that is linked in the ServerLayout, that must be one) is used as your configuration.
So, add BusID to the fglrx Device
...and try again with ati-drivers, radeon can wait

| Okay, I think I'm on to something. I tried to add the BusID and that didn't help anything. I compared the two log files, one from the ATI configuration and one with a stock configuration, and it appears to me that the driver can't find card? I don't know how to explain it, but it's like trying to install a driver for a card that is totally different from the driver you're installing. Does that make sense? Is that even possible? |

I believe I've discovered what was going on. If anyone else has a Radeon HD series card, please confirm that you've had this issue and that, if you weren't able to resolve it, if this resolved the issue. If you were able to resolve it, let us know
I was doing some more research based on the idea that fglrx wasn't finding my card because it wasn't the proper driver for the card. I did a search and found this post here:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-606785-highlight-ati+screens.html
Basically, I unmasked and emerged xf86-video-radeonhd and set the driver to radeonhd. Runs like a champ now at 1440x900! I haven't tested 3D acceleration, but considering the man page said it's not supported yet, I'm sure it's correct and it isn't supported although I've read through google searching some have managed to get 3D acceleration out of it *shrugs* |

So you can run nvidia drivers while using an ATI card?
