Re: [XFree86] Radeon 9200 SE support?

2003-09-13 Thread Olav Reinert
I also just bought such a video card, and I ran into the same problems 
as you have.

The latest release version of XFree86 (v4.3.0) doesn't support this 
card, but as of development snapshot 4.3.99.8 (i.e., also in the latest 
CVS sources) there is support for it. I managed to download and build 
the mentioned snapshot and to install it on top of the XFree86 
installation provided by my SuSE 8.2 system.

So now I have the XFree86 ati radeon driver installed and working, but 
there's still a problem with the DVI output of my card, which is what 
I'm interested in. The problem is currently being worked on 
(http://bugs.xfree86.org/show_bug.cgi?id=673). If you're happy with the 
analog RGB output the solution I've mentioned works just fine. If you 
want DVI output from your card, it would be interesting to know if 
XFree86 v4.3.99.x works for you, or if you get the same problem as me.

Hello all,

I have recently acquired a video card with the Radeon 9200 SE chip, but have

Does anyone know if there is support for this chip in XFree86?

Best regards

2003-09-07 Thread Olav Reinert
My attempts to build XFree86 from a couple of the development snapshots fail 
for the following reasons:

4.3.99.8

xcursorgen.c:252: error: `rows' undeclared (first use in this function)

xf86DDC.c:336: error: invalid lvalue in assignment
make[6]: *** [xf86DDC.o] Error 1

As far as I can make out, these are problems with the C source itself, not my 
environment. Can anyone make out why it doesn't work, and maybe how to fix 
it?

[XFree86] How to test the ATI Radeon 9200 driver

2003-09-05 Thread Olav Reinert
Hi there,

I'd like to test the ATI Radeon 9200 driver for XFree86. This chipset is not 
supported by release 4.3.0, but support for it exists in the CVS source.

So I have tried to download some of the development snapshots of the CVS 
source which contain 9200 support (i.e., the XFree86-4.3.99.8.tar.bz2 and 
XFree86-4.3.99.9.tar.bz2 files) but none of them compile.

So what is the best (=easiest) way for me to get or build a version of XFree86 
4.3.0 that supports my Radeon 9200 chip?


Thanks,

Olav Reinert
