maybe someone has already done that for us... but I wait for your response before try!! I wouldn't like to make my pc unbootable for nothing... big_smile

Did someone else (with r300-r500 chips) try the gallium packages from AUR already? I am super curious what the results would be in terms of performance. I don't want to test them myself because yesterday I had to 'chroot' from Fedora to recover my access to Arch after playing with mesa-full-git, libgl-git, xf86-video-ati-git and stuff like that big_smile

I'm using it on my laptop, it works just fine. According to phoronix it's actually better then the classic mesa. And btw it supports opengl 2.1 and other good stuff.

Edit: I get ~900 FPS with my x1100 (RS482) with glxgears. I think it was around 700 fps with the classic. But glxgears is not a benchmark...

Re: Discussion: the ati/radeon open source drivers & radeon repository

Ok, i browse the phoronix forums for a howto to compile gallium the right way. I found nothing really helpful. But there seems to be a way to have classic mesa and gallium installed parallel. You just have to change an environment variable to switch to gallium (LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH). That works for different applications separately. For example "LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH=/usr/lib/radeon-gallium glxgears". A mesa-full package with classic mesa and gallium (r300 - r700) would be really cool.

@splashy: i do an update for the mesa package this evening. Maybe your problem is fixed already. Or it is a kde bug, i found nothing on the radeon-bugtracker.

that would be really nice. The separate gallium packages from aur need 3 copies of the whole mesa git hmm

Re: Discussion: the ati/radeon open source drivers & radeon repository

This is not a thread about Savage2.
Don't start any applications as root. Use the package manager (pacman) to update your software. In this case, wait for an update of this package in AUR (or do it yourself).

Re: Discussion: the ati/radeon open source drivers & radeon repository

Yep but in normal user you can't update savage2... I search on forums and They said to run as root, me too I don't like this solution.
And when you can't update savage you can't play online, but I run it as root and the game freez during the update at 99%. I do'nt know what to do.

Re: Discussion: the ati/radeon open source drivers & radeon repository

I just upgraded to xorg-server 1.9. Then replaced the xf86-video-ati-git with xf86-video-ati, so it works. big_smile

Thats why opensource f@cks! big_smile

Is there anyone else using [testing], so I could create a new repo for him/them?

Re: Discussion: the ati/radeon open source drivers & radeon repository

I am using testing and I was just wondering what to do with those Xorg 1.9 updates big_smile
So will you, gtklocker, provide git version of xf86-video-ati compiled against Xorg 1.9?

--edit
Thank you so much, gtklocker smile If something is wrong, I'll let you know.

Ofcourse! big_smile

Just wait a bit an I'll upload the package (which you can pacman -U). smile

EDIT: Done, take it from here -> http://www.gtklocker.com/temp/xf86-vide … pkg.tar.xz
It took me a bit till I figured out I should have installed xorg-server-devel. @Perry3D have it in mind, too ;-)

Re: Discussion: the ati/radeon open source drivers & radeon repository

Ho but gtklocker this is normal, cause the xf86-video-ati use mesa 7.8 and with this me to I don't have problem with the blur. NAd after an update of xorg you have to reinstall  xf86-video-ati, so it's the same with xf86-video-ati-git, it's work with xorg 1.9 but blur don't work du to a bug of mesa 7.9

I haven't understood very well which features the new kernel has for radeon cards. Does it provide only dynamic power switch or is there also the "kernel key" /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile for manual switching between high and low? Because when I was under Ubuntu the most advanced kernel compiled was the drm-next, which had only dynamic switching, that didn't work good for me; I have read also that only drm-next would be merged into the next stable kernel, so I deduce the new kernel has not the possibility of a manual switch...

In this case, this radeon repo is still very useful, otherwise I think it should adopt all new bleeding edge features, such as Gallium... however, I think it should be adopted anyway, if it works enough, to keep on being a very bleeding edge repo smile

Re: Discussion: the ati/radeon open source drivers & radeon repository

Hi ppl.
Sorry for hijacking the current flow of ideas, but i reinstalled the system recently and now i can't get KMS early start.
On the wiki page about mkinitcpio it says to add the hook firmware, but on creating the initrd it fails because it says it doesn't exist.
On the wiki page about ati it says to use the package radeon-initrd. Well this package no longer exists, i know it worked because i used it in the previous install.
So, i have an ati that should need to load the firmware for early start for what i understand, how should i do it? I don't think that just adding the radeon module to the modules array in the mkinitcpio.conf is enough but didn't try.

Thanks for the help ^^

I tried to build a mesa-full package for gallium yesterday, but i didn't get it. Glxinfo shows that gallium was running. I get some weird error messages and glxgears was very slow (< 80 fps). But i have a r700 card and gallium isn't really ready for this card.
If someone has infos about the right configure options and which libs are needed, i would be deeply thankful.
