I've been working on a Radeon KMS setup since yesterday, and I've finally got it to the point where nothing works at all. :) At this point, the error I get is that when I try to start X, video card tops outputting any signal at all, and I get the following lines in my /var/log/messages a few dozen times a second:
[drm:radeon_ib_schedule] *ERROR* radeon: couldn't schedule IB(5). [drm:radeon_cs_ioctl] *ERROR* Faild to schedule IB ! I'm using linux-2.6.31-rc8, and mesa, xorg-server, and xf86-video-ati from git checkouts from yesterday, as well as git versions of a few other libraries (I can provide exact versions and revision numbers for everything if necessary, but I don't know what all is relevant right now). Normally I'd assume it's a transient issue, since I'm running several things from git, but [1] indicates that people have been seeing this same error for several months now.

Should I have expected this to work? --Ravi _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
