Questions on Installing fglrx
Hi, I decided to use the fglrx driver on my linux squeeze system as the 3D seemed a bit slow on my machine. Here is my setup: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Manhattan [Mobility Radeon HD 5000 Series] I followed the steps for squeeze from the page: http://wiki.debian.org/fr/ATIProprietary (*) However glxinfo/glxgears/fglrxinfo keeps on failing with: X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) Major opcode of failed request: 136 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString) Serial number of failed request: 15 Current serial number in output stream: 15 According to the log file I have the following errors: $ grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log (EE) fglrx(0): ACPI: DRM connection failed (EE) fglrx(0): ACPI: DRM connection failed (EE) fglrx(0): atiddxDriScreenInit failed, GPS not been initialized. (EE) fglrx(0): XMM failed to open CMMQS connection. (EE) fglrx(0): XMM failed to initialize (EE) SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware. (EE) PreInit failed for input device "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" And last but not least I cannot use aticonfig $ aticonfig --initial Found fglrx primary device section Unable to find any supported Screen sections Thanks for any suggestions, -- Mathieu (*) $ apt-cache policy fglrx-modules-dkms fglrx-modules-dkms: Installed: 1:10-9-3 Candidate: 1:10-9-3 Version table: 1:11-2-1 0 100 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ unstable/non-free amd64 Packages *** 1:10-9-3 0 500 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ squeeze/non-free amd64 Packages 200 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ testing/non-free amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
