Public bug reported:
Tested the new fglrx 2:8.543-0ubuntu1 on Intrepid daily-live 10/15/2008.
Module fglrx fails to load on a Radeon 9500pro.
Steps to reproduce:
- Boot with "text" kernel option (to avoid loading the possibly conflicting
radeon module)
- Enable repositories, install xorg-driver-fglrx (no errors reported, dkms
module installed)
- Try aticonfig --initial that segfaults:
aticonfig[10483]: segfault at c ip 080539fd sp bf8e5910 error 6 in
aticonfig[8048000+34000]
- Edit xorg.conf adding Driver "fglrx" under Device (the rest of the file is
unmodified)
- Try modprobe fglrx that fails:
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx
(/lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/updates/dkms/fglrx.ko): Cannot allocate memory
X does not start either complaining that there is no matching Device
section for my card, but that's a different bug (it looks like an
explicit BusID is now required by fglrx).
** Affects: fglrx-installer (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
