[Xpert]DVI Digital Output with Radeon

2002-01-05 Thread Alan Lue

Hi,

I'm using an ATI All-In-Wonder Radeon AGP card on a
Samsung SyncMaster 170T digital flat panel.

I've started using a bunch of CVS code: XFree86
4.1.99.4, the ati.2 checkpoint_3 drivers, and the
drm_kernel checkpoint_3 code.  Everything's working
very well, except that I get the error

(EE) RADEON(0): [agp] AGP not available

in /var/log/XFree86.0.log, which I suspect has
something to do with the fact that I'm using a
motherboard w/an AMD 761 chipset.  Although dmesg
output indicates that it loads properly:

Linux agpgart interface v0.99 (c) Jeff Hartmann
agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp
memory: 816M
agpgart: Detected AMD 761 chipset
agpgart: AGP aperture is 128M @ 0xd000

XFree86 still reports that AGP is not available. 
Anyway, I'm not so concerned about getting agp and dri
working.

I can live without dri, but I really want to get a
digital signal on my flat panel.  Right now I have the
monitor directly connected to the card with a DVI-I
cable.  I'm able to receive an analog DVI signal, but
I don't seem to be receiving a digital one.  Does
anyone have any ideas as to how I can get digital DVI
output with either XFree86 4.1.0 or 4.1.99.x?

Thanks,
Alan

[Xpert]Using XFree86 CVS Code on Red Hat 7.2

2002-01-05 Thread Alan Lue

Hello,

I'm pretty new to Linux, so please forgive the
generality of my question. =)

How would I go about integrating compiled XFree86 CVS
code with a complete Linux distribution?  More
specifically I'd like to install XFree86 4.1.99.4 on a
Red Hat 7.2 system, which uses XFree86 4.1.0.  I don't
know too much about the X windows system and thought
that if I were to just install the new version of X
over the old one, then I might run into somekind of
incompatibility issue.

So far I've just backed up and removed /usr/X11R6 and
ran 'make install' w/X 4.1.99.4; things are working,
but I don't have any of my /usr/X11R6/bin programs. 
Is there another approach besides installing over the
old X windows files?  Would that even work?

Alan

Re: [Xpert]DVI Digital Output with Radeon

2002-01-05 Thread Alan Lue

The only option I have in my video card device section
is

Option   "AGPMode" "1"

which I wrote in from following the DRI user's guide. 
"CrtScreen" isn't there, and I don't know what values
"PanelSize" takes.  How can I find out what options
the 'radeon' and 'ati' drivers take?

I know that this flat panel takes a digital input, as
I've used it before with a GeForce2 MX DVI card.  The
GeForce2 would send both analog DVI and digital DVI
signals of my motherboard BIOS screen, but with the
Radeon the only signal I get is analog DVI.

I've included my XF86Config-4 file below; I've tried
both 'Driver "radeon"' and 'Driver "ati"' without
luck.  Any ideas?
