Direct rendering: no with Radeon 9600 [solved]

Message

Hi!

I am having some problems with my Radeon 9600. Everything was just fine as long as I had my old hard drive. It broke up so I needed a new one. I've installed Gentoo and I am experiencing lack of direct rendering. It didn't happen before the reinstallation.

I have read many topics at this forums concerning problems with ATI drivers but none of them matched my case.

I am using vanilla-sources-2.6.11.8 but I tried running the fglrx driver with gentoo-sources-2.6.11-r7 kernel with the same result. Both kernels were properly configured.
I was doing exactly as said at http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_ATI_Drivers:

Code: Select all

emerge ati-drivers
fglrxconfig
opengl-update ati
modprobe fglrx
startx

But it doesn't work. I don't get any error messages that could give me a clue.

I've been trying switching the InternatAGPGART to yes and no again but it makes no difference.

Here is my xorg.conf:

I have to suggestions to start with:
1) make a new xorg.conf with the fglrxconfig that came with the drivers. Run it as a user in your home dir, save it there and edit the real xorg.conf. Replace the video settings and the modules section with the ones from fglrxconfig.. try if it works.
2) try the new drivers (in portage, but masked). I'm running them and I have working DRI (first time) with my 9700 mobile.

I find this strange:

(II) Loading extension XFree86-DRI

I think it should be using the dri from fglrx not xfree.

isdes · Post by **isdes** » Sat Sep 03, 2005 3:53 pm

Unfortunately the new drivers aren't working. To be more specific - after emerging ati-drivers-8.16.20 and making new xorg.conf with the fglrxconfig my tv-out stopped working. DRI still isn't working.

Run it as a user in your home dir, save it there and edit the real xorg.conf.

By real xorg.conf you mean xorg.conf created by xorgconfig?

Ok. It's not the "Xfree86-DRI" thing, 'cos I have it too. Our configs are pretty much identical, except for the tv-out settings and I'm using the internalAGP (as advised, but that didn't work either, did it?).

Running out of ideas.. have you checked that the PCI-id is correct (check by running lspci) and that you have fglrx-kernelmodule loaded(lsmod)?

Yeah... the module's loaded. The PCI-id seems ok:

That's ok with me however direct rendering is screaming no as usual

Have you compiled support for your motherboard's agp in kernel? If not, emerge ati-drivers doesn't even install dri.

isdes · Post by **isdes** » Sun Sep 04, 2005 8:10 am

Have you compiled support for your motherboard's agp in kernel? If not, emerge ati-drivers doesn't even install dri.

I guess I did - I have Athlon64 and with IOMMU enabled in Processor Type and Features section there are no chipsets available in Character Devices (besides Intel chipset but I have nforce3). If I turn off IOMMU I can enable amd64-agp, but it doesn't do the job. With agpgart, amd64-agp and fglrx loaded (in this order) direct rendering still doesn't work.

loki99 · Post by **loki99** » Sun Sep 04, 2005 8:19 am

Did you try to compile the drivers into the kernel instead of modulizing them?

isdes · Post by **isdes** » Sun Sep 04, 2005 10:12 am

I've just tried that... Disabled IOMMU and selected agpgart and amd64-agp as build-in. The effect is the same - still doesn't work

I have no experience what so ever with 64bit architechtures, but do you have the 64bit drivers installed?

https://support.ati.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=894 wrote:32-Bit packages must be installed for 64-Bit Linux drivers to install or work.

And one more quote.. not sure if up to date:

http://www.ati.com/products/catalyst/linux.html wrote:Q3: What computer architectures are supported by this driver?
A3: Systems using 32-bit processors from Intel (Pentium III and later) and AMD (Athlon and later) are currently supported. 64-bit drivers are under development, and should be available in a future release. PowerPC, Alpha, and others are not currently supported.

Yes, I have 64bit drivers installed. As I wrote in the begining of this topic I had them working in Gentoo 2004.2 just before my old harddrive died. When I got a new one I've installed Gentoo 2005.1. It doesn't work since then despite doing it exactly the same way.

lamekain · Post by **lamekain** » Sun Sep 04, 2005 10:45 am

Should this be reported to bugs.gentoo.org? I'm sure a developer-wizard there can tell you what exactly changed between the two releases.

I haven't seen it mentioned here, yet, so i'll ask - does DRI work if you startx as root? If it does, your normal-user needs permission to access the dri-device, so add the username to the 'video' group...

Unfortunately running X as root gives the same result. There is still no direct rendering.

I had to ask, as there's only been a permission-issue for a short while, & it still catches people out...

...Which leaves me thinking it's most likely a 64-bit thing, & i have no personal experience with that...

Another thing i haven't seen on this thread, yet, is any relevant output from 'dmesg' - quite often it'll contain some reference to an 'ENODEV'-error, or an 'ENOMEM'-error, which could highlight a more specific area to investigate...

when you emerge the drivers is the /usr/src/linux symlink pointing to the current kernel src tree?

I would guess that's the root-cause of your difficulty - when you emerge ati-drivers, not only do you need to be running the kernel they're going to work with, but the contents of /usr/src/linux needs to match that kernel (i found that out the hard way, when i was trying to get 'InternalAGPGART' to work).

In your case, if the output of the command 'uname -r' isn't '2.6.11.8' (exactly like the /lib/modules directory-name), that'll be why you need to 'insmod' it with the explicit path...

...It would also probably be why the fglrx-module isn't working...

When i had this problem, i rebuilt the contents of the kernel source-tree without re-installing it, then re-emerged ati-drivers against it. To do this, i made certain that the '.config' file was the right one for the job, then ran :-

Code: Select all

cd /usr/src/linux
make clean
make && make modules

...(note the absence of any 'install' commands) I could then re-emerge ati-drivers without problems, but you might have trouble if you re-use module-directories that have old, leftover stuff in them from earlier kernel-builds (the explanation's fairly exotic, but let me know if you'd like it posted)...

isdes · Post by **isdes** » Sun Sep 04, 2005 6:35 pm

/usr/src/linux was a valid symlink to /usr/src/linux-2.6.11.8 all the time. I'm not using any other kernel at the moment.

I've dealt with the modprobe problem - I've just reemerged the kernel source and rebuilt it with the same config.

Now fglrx loads properly with

Code: Select all

modprobe fglrx

but direct rendering still doesn't work.
