[XFree86] XFree86 4.3.0 load problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm running XFree86 4.3.0 on Mandrake Linux 9.1. My
graphics card is a Radeon 9200. The motherboard is a
Soyo Black Dragon KT400 with VIA kt400 chipset.

I'm using the Radeon fglrx drivers from
shroeder-digital.de for this version of XFree86. For
some reason, DRI would not load. A post on Usenet
suggested that I change the agpgart_be.c file to use
the specific setup for my chipset. The file is
attached. I changed line 6073 to read
"via_kt400_setup" instead of "via_generic_setup". I
built a new kernel module, as suggested, and installed
it. When I rebooted the computer, XFree86 would not
load. The XFree86.0.log file is attached. DRI loaded,
but X would not. I cannot figure out what the problem
is.

The command "dmesg|grep fglrx" produced the following
output: 

[fglrx] Maximum main memory to use for locked dma
buffers: 675 MBytes.

The only way to load X is to reinstall the default
fglrx rpm and run fglrxconfig again. What should I try
to fix the problem?

Marc, signing over and out.
Ok, I'm typing, not writing. But that's not the point.
