Is there, anywhere, any documentation with reasonable information on what settings in the xorg.conf and radeon manpages no longer apply in xorg.conf with kms, and what the parallel radeon.* kernel commandline options are? Either updating the manpages, or a separate kms manpage (with suitable SEE ALSO section mentions from existing manpages), would be /wonderful/. Or a kernel Documentation/radeon.txt or kms.txt file. (And, couldn't all the kernel display/graphics related Docs be moved into a display/graphics/video subdir? Seems about time.) Because I really feel like a blind man simply poking things to see what happens, reverse engineering what shouldn't need to be, if you will. Plus chance comments like this, giving me info I had no idea about. Surely I'm not alone, and a good many "bugs" could be eliminated if people only knew about various available settings. > > BTW, /should/ a larger aperture work?

We default to 512 MB on non-AGP systems. Thanks. Useful information. > > 4) dmesg says AGP v3 device in 8x mode.

Now if only that were documented in the manpages... =:^( It does explain why modes below 4x wouldn't work, tho. =:^) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lotusphere 2011 Register now for Lotusphere 2011 and learn how to connect the dots, take your collaborative environment to the next level, and enter the era of Social Business. http://p.sf.net/sfu/lotusphere-d2d -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list Dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
