https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=117131 --- Comment #13 from Jason Vas Dias <jason.vas.dias@xxxxxxxxx> --- Yes, radeon.runpm=0 has stopped the ACPI problem - but the latest Xorg xf86-video-intel driver ( 2.99.917 ) apparently does not work with the latest xorg server (1.18.3) and gets a segmentation violation on initialization - S.N.A.F.U . So, still no graphics mode under 4.5.0 until Xorg gets fixed or I can bother building each previous Xorg server to find one that works with the intel driver. So, please confirm: In order to use the Radeon 8970M at all, currently I have no choice but to run FGLRX closed source drivers and OpenGL user-space library stack, and the open-source radeon drivers (both kernel and Xorg) are of no use to me? There is no way I can use any open-source driver or OpenGL implementation to control the card for X-Windows display use ? Is there any xorg.conf that might potentially let me use the Radeon GPU for display on the laptop LCD without using FGLRX ? I can't see how any xorg.conf can load the Radeon driver for the card, since that driver cannot determine the display modes . I'll see about getting the 8970M card removed from my laptop so I can sell it on ebay - it is of no use to me in the computer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
