Didn't have time to fool with system on the official ATI test day, but I have just gotten some vastly improved results with the latest rawhide updates on my system with the radeon 7200: It actually boots without nomodeset and radeon.modeset=0 (previously some sort of kernel stack trace would happen and the system would go all non-responsive). And, once X starts, it is using the right screen resolution (1920x1080) without an xorg.conf file. I don't think it is doing any mode setting even without the nomodeset boot parameter though, because everything is invisible till X actually starts - the BIOS is apparently selecting some funny mode to operate in which my samsung TV can't display via the hdmi connection. If I hook it to the VGA connection on the TV, it doesn't work quite as well as vesa. It thinks it should use 1024x768, but vesa successfully picked 1280x1024 as the default. The screen mode it isin most of the time during boot is something like 720x400@70HZ (very weird). If I try to run something like "neverputt", I get a warning that 3D is not supported, which isn't all that surprising, but at least 2D seems to be working well for the first time in a while on this ancient 7200. kernel: kernel-2.6.31-2.fc12.x86_64 radeon driver: xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.13.0-0.4.20090908git651fe5a47.fc12.x86_64 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R100 QD [Radeon 7200] -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
