Re: [Bug 556782] Re: [rs690m] Graphics corruption with ati x1200
*nod* See the above comments on starting a new bug and pushing this issue through to xorg. I'm not able to right now -- I just dont' have the time -- I've defaulted to using Lucid, with the radeon-kms.conf fix. The issue is that there's an entirely new driver framework, and it doesn't work for these cards (all the people here and more -- it's a common card in low-end laptops). This means that wayland doesn't work for us, either. I'm hoping I or someone else will have the time to push this all the way up to xorg, and get resolution there before the next LTS release. There's a message above on the necessary process in the fairly-recent history. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/556782 Title: [rs690m] Graphics corruption with ati x1200 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/556782/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 556782] Re: [rs690m] Graphics corruption with ati x1200
I don't know if this works for you, but: Ubuntu has two types of release -- one of them is "LTS", or "Long-term support." I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx, because I can have nifty desktop effects and accelerated graphics, which I find both pretty and extremely useful. To do so, you would need to: 1) Install Lucid Lynx 2) Once you're at the login screen, log into a 'failsafe gnome' session (down at the bottom of the login screen, after you click your username, there's a 'session' option. Change it to 'failsafe gnome' 3) run the following command: gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms-workaround.conf 4) type the following line: options radeon modeset=0 5) Save, and reboot. What it does: forces usage of an older driver What it provides an x1200 user: Accelerated desktop with compiz What it provides an x300 user: no idea, but it should be better than the default. I simply haven't had the time to push this issue through to xorg and get it changed in the new driver -- I've just been too busy. But there was a nice writeup earlier about what needs to be done, if anyone can take up that challenge. -Brian -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/556782 Title: [rs690m] Graphics corruption with ati x1200 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/556782/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
