ATI Driver Install Problems


Unusually, I've never before had many problems getting ATI drivers to work when I had other distros installed... but now, with LFS, they don't work .

The ATI linux drivers *seem* to install fine on my LFS system (both 8.10 and 8.8, no errors), and I can startx, without producing any error messages or bad warnings in my X log... but fglrxinfo still says Mesa and it's all still slow. The X log has encouraging message about fglrx and drm and hw acceleration all being enabled... but apparently something somewhere is going wrong and it just isn't telling me.

What's worse is that when I leave X (even just switching out to terminal), my screen goes into noisy black and white vertical stripes and the system hangs until I turn off the power.

Can anyone help me? I've spent hours and hours, and haven't gotten anywhere.

Running 2.6.10 kernel, 6.8.2 Xorg. My xorg.conf file is just the fglrxconfig generated one, but I'll post it if someone wants to look.

Xorg.0.log, snip'd to be <25000

Is it just me? I thought those drivers weren't compatible with the 2.6 kernel ... :\ hope I'm wrong so I can get these drivers installed myself.

Hurray, I accidently found and fixed most of the probem! Installing another app, I needed gcc3.3.4 for the old stdc libraries, so I installed that... and now fglrx works! I didn't realize it before because I was converting the rpm to a cpio file (since getting rpm to properly detect any dependencies not installed from an rpm is a pain), so I had no dependency checking.

So now I have acceleration and almost all is well.

Unfortunately, if fglrx is loaded, I still can't leave X without having my computer die, leaving black and white stripes on the monitor. Argh!

Has someone successfully installed the latest 8.10.19 ati drivers on a 2.6.11 kernel? There's no way to build them

2.6.11 requires a patch for your drivers before you build them, mainly because of the removal of remap_page_range in 2.6.11.

Try googling fglrx 2.6.11 patch.

I'd post a link, but these boards don't let me because my post count is too low.

Anyhow, my problems have now all been solved, thanks to help from elsewhere. For the sake of anyone searching the forums later looking for answers to the same issue, my problem was that I was using the radeonfb driver for framebuffer support in the console. Apparently this causes the computer to die whenever you leave X.
