**************** EXPERIMENTAL *****************
************ XORG-SERVER 1.9 ONLY *************
*********************************************
Hi all ATI users!
I have updated my ebuild for ati-drivers 10.10 on my overlay : gentoo-quebec
I made patch for kernel 2.6.36 AND kernel 2.6.35-
I have tested with 2.6.36 and xorg 1.9 but I did not got the time for testing 2.6.35-, if someone do, please feedback 
Will not work on xorg-server 1.8 and less
What's new :
- "working" Vsync
- "working" 2D acceleration
- kernel 2.6.36 (from two of my small patchs)
* Kernel module build fix for x86_64 kernels with security fix for CVE-2010-3081
* Generalized kernel module build fix for CVE-2010-3081 to work on RHEL and SLED/SUSE
* Ubuntu 10.10 early-look support (Xserver 1.9 support)
* Updated packaging scripts to support Ubuntu
10.10
* openSUSE 11.3 production support
* Fixed packaging scripts for SLED/SUSE
* Updated packaging scripts
* Checks for available video memory in CCC-LE before allowing to enable memory-intensive features
* Fixed Xserver segfaults and soft hangs when VT switching back to X
* Fixed missing CCC-LE icons in the System-Preferences menu
* Fixed corruption in Xinerama mode
* Fixed CCC-LE Gamma correction applied to wrong displays on openSUSE 11.3
* Fixed text corruption in Steam games
* Added missing maverick symlink in Ubuntu packaging script directory
* Fixed X version detection problems in installer, fixes installation

| Tried it with Xorg 1.9 kernel 2.6.35.7. It works but for some reason windows, when moved around in KDE with desktop effects, just float after the mouse. Very annoying. |

| And fglrx still requires a bit more CPU when playing video. At least vsync is actually fixed... |

It's probably failing silently rather than prompting you due to this certificate error:
Error validating server certificate for 'https://gentoo-quebec.org:443':
- The certificate hostname does not match.
Certificate information:

Hi DestroyFX,
thank you very match for this ebuild.
The ebuild does not fit yet. It seems to be missing some more patches?
Is it the x86_64 ioctl error?

Yeah, got this too with the 2.6.35 kernel. Ended up making a copy of the ebuild in the local overlay and modifying the arch-2.6.35_et_moins.patch patch to:
| Code: | diff -aur orig/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/kcl_ioctl.c final/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/kcl_ioctl.c

+++ final/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/kcl_ioctl.c 2010-10-12 02:58:37.685811001 -0400
@@ -193,7 +193,7 @@
*/
void* ATI_API_CALL KCL_IOCTL_AllocUserSpace32(long size)
{
- void __user *ret = COMPAT_ALLOC_USER_SPACE(size);
+ void __user *ret = arch_compat_alloc_user_space(size);
/* prevent stack overflow */
if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, ret, size)) |
Temporary solution. Getting lots of trouble with those drivers so far. Waiting for final 10.10. |

I see.
So they backported the big hole fix in the 2.6.35 kernel. (I did not see this one, I work only with GIT kernel)
The 2.6.36 patch is the same that the one ssteinberg modified so I will need to detect with revision of the 2.6.35 is installed and use the good patch... |

Hi ssteinberg,
I found Catalyst für Linux BETA 8.783 rc1 in the german ati forum
http://www.ati-forum.de/allgemein/downloads/treiber/3269-catalyst-10-10-beta-f%C3%BCr-linux/
and it works well.

I have updated the ebuild for the kernel 2.6.37-rc1. A new mini patch was required (currently I dont have any problem).
I was not able to update the overlay because someone in charge fucked it up or something append so here the file to manually update it :
ebuild : http://www.cosmicencounter.net/mirror/patch/ati-drivers-10.10.ebuild
New patch : http://www.cosmicencounter.net/mirror/patch/sema_init.patch
If you never used Gentoo-quebec overlay, you need ati-drivers-2.6.36.patch, arch-2.6.36.patch, arch-2.6.35_et_moins.patch.
PS : Can someone point me out the procedure to register an overlay for layman (so I will not depend on someone else.)? |

ATi was acquired by AMD. It is still ATi though. |

just a heads up 
you better have a backup of your value data:
I also used 2.6.37 (shortly before rc1) and observed silent data corruption where /etc/init.d/killprocs, gcc, my /root/.bash_history and other valuable stuff disappeared (was zeroed or didn't exist anymore)
this was on ext4 for /root - luckily my /home-partition didn't show any data loss 
the kernel I was using was a little modified (multi-cpu dm-crypt, partial ck-patchset, ...) so it could be due to those
anyways: always have a backup of your most important data available (including a stage4/5-tarball)

Yeah, Always backup 
Currently I use Reiser4 and btrfs on everything, hopefully, no corruptions will occur |

For some reason they still advertise all their cards as "ATi Radeons" even on their official site. All official drivers for all platforms are still ATi drivers/ATi Catalyst thing, etc officially. *shrug*
Edit: Oh ok, it is only for future cards. |

I was asked a few minutes ago to add the same fingerprint as above.

Here is the scrap of the output about it.

How do I remove that signiture, since I obviously didn't need it?
It's not in the godaddy's repository:
https://certs.godaddy.com/anonymous/repository.seam;jsessionid=h2hYfTjCgdDJa5EU7tfzeg__.p3p01jb
Anyway, I can't figure it I was introduced into my system, because it says above the "connection was closed by server" in the meantime or whatever.
Help appreciated! |
