Bug#595767: xserver-xorg-video-radeon: Won't load hardware acceleration after system start
Hi, thanks for your help. Adding a line containing the module name radeon to /etc/modules was the solution. Is there any way for the future to make the package do that automatically? Anyway, thanks a lot for your support! Frank Von: Alex Deucher alexdeuc...@gmail.com For KMS, the drm needs to be loaded before X starts since it fully controls the hw with KMS rather then being partially shared with the userspace driver. You need to adjust your udev or modprobe or initrd settings to make sure the module is loaded before X starts. The problem is, when the ddx attempts to load the drm, it often does not finish initializing the hardware before X starts so the ddx assumes KMS is not enabled and then both the ddx and the drm attempt to control the hardware.

Hi, Make sure the radeon drm is loaded before you start X. Alex Radeon drm is loaded by xorg.conf which is loaded by X, isn't it? How can I get that to load before X starts?

How can I get that to load before X starts? Well the drm normally has a kernel driver (isn't that part called dri?), I guess that's the part that should be loaded before starting X.

Bug#595767: xserver-xorg-video-radeon: Won't load hardware acceleration after system start
Package: xserver-xorg-video-radeon Version: 1:6.13.1-2 Severity: important Hi all, after boot, the started GUI has no enabled hardware acceleration: ~$ glxinfo | grep -i render direct rendering: Yes OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer Which means, e.g., i can't start compiz. But after killing and restarting X, everything works fine: ~$ glxinfo | grep -i render direct rendering: Yes OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R200 (RV250 4C66) 20090101 x86/MMX/SSE2 TCL DRI2 IMHO, that means some part of the graphical driver is loaded too late for the system to detect hardware acceleration actually IS available.
