What kernel are you using? Did you compile your kernel WITHOUT DRI and DRM support and with agp support as a modules? Are agpgart and nvidia_agp (or whatever your AGP chipset module is) in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6? What card do you have?


2.6
mmm no... I recompiled the kernel WITH DRI and WITH agp support modules and agpgart and ati_agp.
I didn't check /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6, when I will come back home I will try (I using debian at home)

I've a Radeon Mobility 8500

tnx for your help

Remove DRI support from the kernel. It conflicts with the drivers.

I am unable to emerge any of the ati-drivers against 2.6.10 ro 2.6.11 gentoo kernels, it fails to build the drm module and as a rsult also fails to build the fglrx module which is probably why you are getting your error also.

I just saw your kernel (2.6.8-milano). I've never heard of this before, but I do know that some kernels are screwy with the ATI drivers. For instance, 2.6.11-nitro0 didn't work for me, even though 2.6.11-rc3-nitro1 had worked. Try switching to the latest gentoo-dev-sources (x86 or ~x86, your choice, I'm using the ~x86 myself) and seeing if you can compile the module under them.

Ok, so now I"m getting

Code:
[fglrx:firegl_init] *ERROR* Device not found!


As two other posts describe. That's 3 people with the same error message....anybody know a fix for this?

(I tried using both the regular ati drivers and the 200m drivers....neither of them work both with the same error message)
