[XFree86] garbled screen with xfree 4.2.99 and radeon (sdr 32mb)

2003-02-21 Thread Daniel Paessler
hi... 

i use gentoo linux and compiled xfree 4.2.99, but things got bad.
xfree compiles fine, but when i try to start it, i get only garbage on
the screen. that means the screen itself looks bad and the mouse cursor
is only a scrappy square.when i switch back, my console also is
garbled... 
i've tried this with my old gentoo 1.2 and now, installed a fresh
1.4rc2, i have the same problem. so i switched back to xfree 4.2.1 and
everything is fine... 
sorry, but i haven't a log file, but as i remember, there were no errors
in it. 
any ideas? does no other radeon user have this problem? maybe it isn't
the radeon at all? all is compiled with gcc 3.2.2, kernel-module loads
ok... 
so where can i start invesigating? it is not 4.3 final, i know, but
shouldn't it work? 

my system:

athlon xp 2100+
512 mb ddr 333 infineon
ati radeon sdr with 32mb
abit kd7 with via kt400 chipset
gentoo 1.4 rc2
kernel 2.4.20 with drm and agp as modules

if you need more infos, please tell me...

thanks in advance 

daniel

The software package said 'Requires Windows 95 or better',
so I installed Linux  ;-)

hi,
I also have radeon 32MB and have problems with the display in 4.3RC2, 
not that bad as yours, but I cant get back to X from xonsole.
