[HOW-TO] Ati Radeon & Kernel 2.6 - Updated

ActionNews · 2004-08-25 19:18:59

Hmm ... ok used your PKGBUILD for building the ati-drivers-modules. Compiled without errors but had to use nodeps, as your PKGBUILD requires the package kernel26>=2.6.7 but i your compiled it my self and there is no kernel26-package installed. Then i removed ati-drivers package with packman and added your tur to pacman.conf. Afterwards i installed the ati-drivers-modulespackage (agein used nodeps cause of kernel26 dependencies) an installed ati-drivers ofer your TUR, but after a reboot fglrxinfo says:

display: :0.0  screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.4 Mesa 5.0.2)

Well agp-gart and fglrx module is loaded. Whats wrong?
EDIT: I'm using the same old xorg.conf as with drivers 3.9.0.

Hey link, could you do me (us) a favor and make <kernel>-scsi package too, or change dependencies?
Pretty please?

PS: Installed old 3.9.0 drivers again and it works again.

I think I found a major flaw in my current package. I believe the kernel26mm package contains the kernel26 module

I'll fix it this weekend.

Please note that i used Links PKGBUILD but changed the kernelver-string from 2.6.8.1 to 2.6.7 to fit my Kernel.

PS: Perhaps the ati-server was down??

Hum · 2004-08-30 14:55:16

check the link for the rpm in your pkgbuild.. somehow when you copy / pasted it or what have you you managed to get %0D in the link.
http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/fglrx … 1.i386.rpm
should be your link.

slackhack · 2004-08-30 15:25:25

okay, it's working now after starting fresh from my linux box. i was copying the files over ssh from windows last night, and i guess it was adding some escape characters that weren't showing up in putty/vim.

so now that the packages are installed, what's next? i can't seem to modprobe the driver. :?:

i -am- getting some weird error during ati-mod makepkg:

A little off topic, but does anybody know how i get this %&$§%&-Xvideo running with ATi drivers? Every time i try to use ATi-xv for my tv card or Xine it frezzes my system completely. Horrable. I fear next time i have to buy a Nvidia card :?. (I still hope that PowerVR gets its PowerVR Series 5 into markets with good linux drivers)

so far, the 3.9.0's have been more stable for me. These seem to crash and burn when closing X or suspending.

Does this sound about right for a 9700pro, Barton 3000, and 512mb of ddr333?

Went up to 3,11 drivers, and now xorg says the "fglrx" module doesn't exist (however, lsmod begs to differ). All the modules load properly at boot per the original instructions and worked fine with 3.9.0. One thing I noticed was there is not a /lib/modules/fglrx directory when using the premade drivers from link's repository. I am using the conifg posted here (latest one), and have a Radeon 9600 card. Thanks for any help in advance,

Jay

I had this error before installing rpmunpack

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MAKE SURE YOU INSTALL RPMUNPACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111

If you don't the makepkg will 'SEEM" to work right... but in reality you're just going to be wasting your time......

Does anybody already have a PKGBUILD for ATi-drivers 3.12.0 ?

http://ati.com/support/drivers/linux/ra … submit.y=2

Here's my PKGBUILD:

 # Contributors: Manolis Tzanidakis <mtzanidakis@freemail.gr>

 pkgname=ati-drivers

 # build-time deps: rpmunpack, cpio, gzip

 }

This version still seems to crash upon X exit on my T41p... but it works fine otherwise.

Thanks ... i'll try it later ... hmm time to learn how abs works and how to write my own PKGBUILDs .

You can (and should ) code these in as follows:

makedepends=(rpmunpack cpio gzip)

kleptophobiac · 2004-09-11 17:59:52

Sounds good!

I also updated the .install file so that it doesn't scare people with the unexpected EOF error.

Here's trial 2!

here

# mkdir /var/abs/local/ati
# cd /var/abs/local/ati
# wget http://www.mstcforum.com/projects/arch/abs-ati-driver-3.12.0-2.tar.gz
# tar -xzf abs-ati-driver-3.12.0-2.tar.gz
# makepkg -c
# pacman -A ati-driver-3.12.0-2.tar.gz

Then follow the directions that print to the screen.

Has anyone tried the drivers with xorg 6.8? Do they compile and work? I haven't had time myself, but I'm curious to know the result.
