Radeon driver : other cards which should be supported
Hello, I've noticed the radeon driver changes following the last patch (4.7.99.16-4.7.99.17.diff.bz2). Thanks for having taken into account my proposals. Here is another list of Radeon cards which should be supported by the radeon driver. I suspect all the entries marked as Secondary can be ignored, because the primary head will do the job from XFree86's point of view. 0x10020x3151"ATI|M24 [FireMV 2400]" 0x10020x3171"ATI|M24 [FireMV 2400] (Secondary)" 0x10020x3e70"ATI|RV380 [Radeon X600] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4164"ATI|R300 AD [Radeon 9500 Pro] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4165"ATI|R300 AE [Radeon 9700 Pro] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4166"ATI|R300 AF [Radeon 9700 Pro] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4168"ATI|Radeon R350 [Radeon 9800] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4170"ATI|RV350 AP [Radeon 9600] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4171"ATI|RV350 AQ [Radeon 9600] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4172"ATI|RV350 AR [Radeon 9600] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4173"ATI|RV350 AS [Radeon 9550] (Secondary)" 0x10020x496e"ATI|Radeon RV250 [Radeon 9000] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4a69"ATI|R420 [Radeon X800 PRO/GTO] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4a6a"ATI|R420 [Radeon X800] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4a6b"ATI|R420 [Radeon X800] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4a70"ATI|R420 [X800XT-PE] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4a74"ATI|R420 [Radeon X800 VE] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4b48"ATI|Radeon X850 Consumer (R481)" 0x10020x4b69"ATI|R480 [Radeon X850XT] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4b6b"ATI|R480 [Radeon X850Pro] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4b6c"ATI|R481 [Radeon X850XT-PE] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4c6e"ATI|Radeon RV250 Ln [Radeon Mobility 9000 M9] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4e64"ATI|Radeon R300 [Radeon 9700 Pro] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4e65"ATI|Radeon R300 [Radeon 9500 Pro] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4e66"ATI|RV350 NF [Radeon 9600] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4e67"ATI|Radeon R300 [FireGL X1] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4e68"ATI|Radeon R350 [Radeon 9800 Pro] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4e69"ATI|Radeon R350 [Radeon 9800] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4e6a"ATI|RV350 NJ [Radeon 9800 XT] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4e71"ATI|M10 NQ [Radeon Mobility 9600] (Secondary)" 0x10020x4f72"ATI|RV250 [Radeon 9000 Series]" 0x10020x4f73"ATI|Radeon RV250 [Radeon 9000 Series] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5154"ATI|R200 QT [Radeon 8500]" 0x10020x5155"ATI|R200 QU [Radeon 9100]" 0x10020x515f"ATI|ES1000" 0x10020x5461"ATI|M22 [Mobility Radeon X300]" 0x10020x"ATI|R430 GL PRO" 0x10020x5569"ATI|R423 UI [Radeon X800PRO (PCIE)] (Secondary)" 0x10020x556b"ATI|Radeon R423 UK (PCIE) [X800 SE] (Secondary)" 0x10020x556d"ATI|R430 [Radeon X800 XL] (PCIe) (Secondary)" 0x10020x556f"ATI|R430 [Radeon X800] (PCIE) (Secondary)" 0x10020x5571"ATI|R423GL-SE [FireGL V5100 (PCIE)] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5657"ATI|Radeon X550/X700 Series (RV410) 0x10020x5854"ATI|Radeon Xpress Series (RS480)" 0x10020x5874"ATI|Radeon Xpress Series (RS482)" 0x10020x5940"ATI|RV280 [Radeon 9200 PRO] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5941"ATI|RV280 [Radeon 9200] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5944"ATI|RV280 [Radeon 9200 SE (PCI)]" 0x10020x5a43"ATI|Radeon Xpress Series (RS400)" 0x10020x5a63"ATI|Radeon Xpress Series (RC410)" 0x10020x5b66"ATI|RV370X (RV370)" 0x10020x5b70"ATI|RV370 [Radeon X300SE]" 0x10020x5b72"ATI|RV380 [Radeon X600]" 0x10020x5b73"ATI|RV370 secondary [Sapphire X550 Silent]" 0x10020x5b74"ATI|RV370 5B64 [FireGL V3100 (PCIE)] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5d44"ATI|RV280 [Radeon 9200 SE] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5d45"ATI|RV280 [FireMV 2200 PCI] (secondary)" 0x10020x5d51"ATI|R480 GL 12P (R480)" 0x10020x5d6d"ATI|R480 [Radeon X850XT Platinum (PCIE)] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5d6f"ATI|R480 [Radeon X800 GTO (PCIE)] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5d72"ATI|R480 [Radeon X850XT (PCIE)] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5d77"ATI|R423 5F57 [Radeon X800XT (PCIE)] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5e49"ATI|RV410 [FireGL V3300]" 0x10020x5e6b"ATI|RV410 [Radeon X700 Pro (PCIE)] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5e6d"ATI|RV410 [Radeon X700 (PCIE)] (Secondary)" 0x10020x5f57"ATI|R423 [Radeon X800XT (PCIE)]" 0x10020x7c37"ATI|RV350 AQ [Radeon 9600 SE]" 0x103c0x31fb"HP|DL365 ATI ES1000 VGA controller" Loïc M
Radeon driver : changes to the radeon(4x) man page
Hello again, To be consistent with the source code, I propose this update to the radeon(4x) man page, in order to cover all chipsets supported by the driver. I added RN50 (ES1000), RC410, RS480 and RS482. I didn't modified the order in which the chipsets are listed on the man page, but it would perhaps be logical to use a "natural" order, e.g. : RN50 R100 RS100 RV100 R200 RS200 RV200 RS250 RV250 RV280 R300 RS300 R350 RS350 RV350 R360 and so on. You can note that I added the mention "2D only" to the RS400, since radeon_driver.c indicates that DRI is broken for that chipset. --- radeon.man Tue May 13 12:46:00 2008 +++ radeon.man.new Wed May 14 13:37:10 2008 @@ -23,6 +23,9 @@ .B radeon driver supports PCI and AGP video cards based on the following ATI chips .TP 12 +.B RN50 +ES1000 (2D only) +.TP 12 .B R100 Radeon 7200 .TP 12 @@ -54,7 +57,7 @@ Radeon 9200 IGP .TP 12 .B RS400 -Radeon XPRESS 200/200M IGP +Radeon XPRESS 200/200M IGP (2D only) .TP 12 .B RV280 Radeon 9200PRO/9200/9200SE, M9+ @@ -80,6 +83,9 @@ .B RV380 Radeon X600, M24 (2d only) .TP 12 +.B RC410 +Radeon XPRESS 200/200M (2d only) +.TP 12 .B RV410 Radeon X700, M26 PCIE (2d only) .TP 12 @@ -91,6 +97,12 @@ .TP 12 .B R480/R481 Radeon X850 PCIE/AGP (2d only) +.TP 12 +.B RS480 +Radeon XPRESS 200/200M (2d only) +.TP 12 +.B RS482 +Radeon XPRESS 200/200M (2d only) .SH CONFIGURATION DETAILS Please refer to XF86Config(__filemansuffix__) for general configuration Loïc Mahé - Toulouse, France
Radeon driver : some comments about the source code
Last mail for today, I checked ATI's fglrx source code and the pci.ids database and I found some discrepancies with XFree86's code (radeon_probe.c) for the identification of the chipsets. I would normally tell ATI is right, but ... PCI_CHIP_RV380_3152 "ATI Radeon Mobility X300 (M24) 3152 (PCIE)" => fglrx : ATI MOBILITY RADEON X300 (M22 3152), so RV370 chipset (instead of RV380) => pci.ids : ATI|M22 [Radeon Mobility X300] PCI_CHIP_RV360_AR "ATI Radeon 9600XT AR (AGP)" => fglrx : ATI RADEON 9600 Series (RV350/RV360 4152) => pci.ids : ATI|RV350 AR [Radeon 9600] PCI_CHIP_RV370_5462 "ATI Radeon Mobility X600 SE (M24C) 5462 (PCIE)" => fglrx and pci.ids agree, but according to the radeon(4x) man page, the M24 chipset is comparable to a RV380 (instead of RV370) PCI_CHIP_RV370_5B62 "ATI Radeon X600 (RV370) 5B62 (PCIE)" => pci.ids : ATI|RV380 [Radeon X600 (PCIE)] => according to the radeon(4x) man page, the X600 has a RV380 chipset (instead of RV370) => but fglrx also says : RADEON X600 Series (RV370 5B62) whereas other X600 are given as RV380 PCI_CHIP_RS350_7835 "ATI Radeon Mobility 9200 IGP 7835" => fglrx : MOBILITY RADEON 9000 IGPRL300MB (what is RL300 ???) PCI_CHIP_RS300_5835 "ATI Radeon Mobility 9100 IGP (U3) 5835" => fglrx says : RS300M chipset ??? Moreover, the man page and source code should indicate clearly where the DRI is supported or not, because RADEONPreInitDRI(), is not always clean with that. Loïc Mahé - Toulouse, France

Well, the code no longer assumes multifunction devices have a zero function, which means the PCI scan now looks at all combinations of device and function numbers. So I would expect it to take slightly longer. But not by _that_ much. > These chips (111d:8018) are found only on the TX150-S6. > On the 2 other computers, XFree86 starts without problem. > Here is the lspci output for the TX150-S6.

Please try the attached patch when you get the system back. It would be sufficient to check if the slowdown still occurs with the resulting scanpci binary. Thanks.
