Hi! I already posted this on the dri-users list a while ago...sorry for that...but i noticed that dri-users was probably the wrong mailinglist.
I am having problems using the r300 drivers. Somehow dri won't work. /dev/dri just stays empty. My Setup: AMD64 Athlon 3200+ Asus K8V Radeon 9800Pro debian pure64 vanilla kernel 2.6.9 I followed the instructions of the README. xorg CVS Mesa CVS patches have been applied finally i compiled the drm driver and insmodded it. Relevant sections of my xorg.cnf: Section "Module" # This loads the DBE extension module. Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension # This loads the miscellaneous extensions module, and disables # initialisation of the XFree86-DGA extension within that module. SubSection "extmod" Option "omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension EndSubSection # This loads the font modules Load "type1" Load "speedo" Load "freetype" Load "xtt" # This loads the GLX module Load "glx" # This loads the DRI module Load "dri" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Radeon" Option "AGPMode" "4" Driver "radeon" Option "RenderAccel" "On" Option "AGPFastWrite" "On" Option "BusType" "AGP" #Option "NoRenderExtension" "Off" # Option "NoLogo" "On" Option "Accel" "On" Option "CIOverlay" "On" Option "OverlayDefaultVisual" "On" Option "TransparentIndex" "yes" Option "CursorShadow" "yes" Option "HWCrusor" "On" #VideoRam 65536 VideoRam 131072 BusID "AGP:01:00:0" # Insert Clocks lines here if appropriate EndSection I collected most of these options while googling. Many of them don't work but a plain Device section doesn't help either. agpgart etc are enabled in the kernel: CONFIG_AGP=y CONFIG_AGP_AMD64=y CONFIG_DRM=y CONFIG_DRM_RADEON=m xorg-log: (II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0 (WW) RADEON: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:1) found (--) Chipset ATI Radeon 9800PRO NH (AGP) found [...] (II) RADEON(0): vgaHWGetIOBase: hwp->IOBase is 0x03d0, hwp->PIOOffset is 0x0000 (II) RADEON(0): PCI bus 1 card 0 func 0 (**) RADEON(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32 (II) RADEON(0): Pixel depth = 24 bits stored in 4 bytes (32 bpp pixmaps) (==) RADEON(0): Default visual is TrueColor (**) RADEON(0): Option "accel" "On" (**) RADEON(0): Option "BusType" "AGP" (**) RADEON(0): Option "AGPMode" "4" (**) RADEON(0): Option "AGPFastWrite" "On" (**) RADEON(0): Option "RenderAccel" "On" (==) RADEON(0): RGB weight 888 (II) RADEON(0): Using 8 bits per RGB (8 bit DAC) [...] (II) RADEON(0): initializing int10 (II) RADEON(0): Primary V_BIOS segment is: 0xc000 (--) RADEON(0): Chipset: "ATI Radeon 9800PRO NH (AGP)" (ChipID = 0x4e48) (--) RADEON(0): Linear framebuffer at 0xe8000000 (--) RADEON(0): BIOS at 0xfd100000 (II) RADEON(0): Video RAM override, using 131072 kB instead of 131072 kB (**) RADEON(0): VideoRAM: 131072 kByte (256 bit DDR SDRAM) (II) RADEON(0): AGP card detected (**) RADEON(0): Forced into AGP mode [..] (II) RADEON(0): I2C bus "DDC" initialized.
