Re: Error in video display -- ati 3D RagePro card

2008-01-17 Thread George -
 I have recently installed Fedora 8.0 and also
 Ubuntu 7.10 on two of my 'under used' systems.
 
 I reconfigured those systems to use 2 ati cards:
 ati 3D Rage Pro rev92 and ati 3D Rage Pro 215GP rev 92.
 
 However, the display shows some garbage.
 

Does the following patch help ?

http://people.freedesktop.org/~gsap7/mach64-cursor.patch

I'll push it to git if it does, since it's been reported multiple times ...

Are you willing to test one or two other patches against git HEAD ?

regards,
George.

Please tell me how to apply it.

Is this for both Fedora or for Ubuntu ... or both?

Of course ... _after_ testing this one.  (grin)

should apply to both, do you know how to compile source packages for your 
distro ?

it applies with:

cd top dir for ati package

patch -p1  mach64-cursor.patch


you may want to try git HEAD directly (for ubuntu):

sudo apt-get install git-core

sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-video-ati

git-clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-ati
cd xf86-video-ati
git-checkout -b test master
patch -p1  mach64-cursor.patch


./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make
make install

If sth goes wrong, reinstall ubuntu driver with:
sudo apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-video-ati

George.
