Description

I've just backported the latest support from CVS for all XFree86.org known ATI Radeon/FireGL hardware. The latest updates are provided by the following two patches in XFree86 4.3.0-36, and will appear in rawhide soon. XFree86-4.3.0-Xserver-xf86PciInfo-updates.patch XFree86-4.3.0-radeon-support-backport-from-CVS.patch Yet to be done, is to take the latest PCI ID list from ATI, plus their Catalyst drivers Windows .INF file PCI ID's, then apply a couple new patches for new hardware coming out, then verify the billion locations where these all show up in the driver/Xserver/pcitable/yadayada. ;o) Please test 4.3.0-36 and let me know if it works for you, and if it is autodetected by r-c-x properly. Thanks Chris *** Bug 105962 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Chris is out of town this week, so I'll test this out and report. Thanks Dax. RPMS are on my people.redhat.com ftp space under testing/unstable 4.3.0-36 I tried out -37. The Xserver would start without having to add the ChipId line. Cool! Problem I saw though, the console (whole machine maybe??) locked up while the GNOME desktop was still loading. I couldn't do a CTL-ALT-F1 to get a text terminal. That was with a fully up2date (I subscribed the machine to the beta updates channel) with the exception of the kernel. Anyways, I did this testing 10 mins before I had to leave to catch a 18 hour plane ride to Australia to teach a class. Sorry I didn't have a chance to chase down the lockup. I won't be back until next week, but Chris will be back this week (starting Monday). Speaking of which I'm +16 hours from my normal time zone (MST), so my Monday is almost done. I also am seeing this lockup (though in -40), both on AMD64 and i386 RHEL3 final, running the Fedora XFree86 RPMs. I'm closing this, since it works w/o Chip Id now.... |
