I have been trying to get direct rendering working with my 7.3 install.
When using my freshly compiled tdfx.o module I get an unresolved symbol
"cmpxchg" :(
I followed some instructions I found in the list archives and did this:
cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.18-4
edit the toplevel Makefile and remove "custom" from EXTRAVERSIONS
make mrproper
make xconfig
click "load configuration from file"
load /usr/src/linux-2.4.18-4/configs/kernel-2.4.18-i586.config
click "save and exit"
make dep (rebuilds the kernel includes and stuff)
build the linux-drm-4.2.0-kernelsource.tar.gz with:
make -f Makefile.linux
cp cp gamma.o tdfx.o r128.o radeon.o sis.o
/lib/modules/2.4.18-4/kernel/drivers/char/drm/
After this I get the following unresolved symbols:
[root@icebreaker drm]# depmod -a
