Is it a way to run xorg with an ati radeon x1200

2007-10-01 Thread Sebastien
Hello,

I'm trying to install 6.2-amd64 on a notebook. I've some difficulties
with xorg-7.3 and the video card. It's an Amilo pa 2510 with an ati
radeon X1200 (series?) video card and a wxga 1280x800 wild screen.

I heard that the xf86-video-radeonhd driver may support this video card,
but it seems experimental and I didn't find it as port. I've find some
thread saying that it's possible to compile the driver under freebsd but
I haven't be able to do so.

Is it a way to run a stable X with this kind of hardware ? 

Thank you.

I had the same problem actually. Didn't find yet how to solve it, except using 
fglrx-drivers through linux-bin-compat..

 Where did you find a fglrx driver for amd64 and how did you install it ?
 I'm a bit confused now on compatibility. I've installed linux-bin-compat
 but never using it.
 
 Did you try compiling a radeonhd driver from sources ?
 
 If I find something I'll post it on freebsd-questions@freebsd.org and
 put you in bcc.
 
 Thanks

But the problem is, dri doesn't work on that card. I just changed my laptop, 
because it's quite annoying installing drivers and getting ati card to work...
