Hello,
I could get dri work on
-Chipset ATI Radeon IGP320M (U1) 4336 found
-kernel 2.4.24
-XFree86-4.3+fix+DRI-cvs+MEsa-cvs branches



Just to clarify things a bit: I _have_ had DRI working in the past with my card on 2.4.x kernels, but I really need it working on 2.6.x because I would also like to make use of 2.6.x's features such as CPU frequency scaling.


The problem is, for some reason X restarts my computer after DRI is loaded... but verifying the XFree86 log file after booting into runlevel 3, here's what shows up:

(II) RADEON(0): Acceleration enabled
(==) RADEON(0): Backing store disabled
(==) RADEON(0): Silken mouse enabled
(II) RADEON(0): Using hardware cursor (scanline 770)
(II) RADEON(0): Largest offscreen area available: 1024 x 7413
(II) RADEON(0): Direct rendering enabled
(==) RandR enabled

So it seems that DRI is being enabled, but I can't seem to figure out why X is totally panicking after loading it.

For the record, I've tried disabling acpi.. but my computer won't even boot up when I add in "acpi=off" to the kernel line.

I know there's some little problem or something... but I'm at the end of my rope. I've done what I could... but I'm just not experienced enough to figure this out all by myself. My log files show no sign of errors at all........

ok... Just as I was typing that line, I realized I didn't even check my kernel messages :P

Here's something that sounds kinda related to the problem:

That's the last message in my log file for a while, then about... 2 minutes later there's another one... involving klogd and bios info... so I guess that means that, before the crash, there was some problem related to atkbd.c

Any help greatly, super-dooperly appreciated!

PS: Am I posting this to the right place? Or should it be sent to the developers? Please let me know.

Logan.
