ATI Radeon Xpress 200
Hi everybody,
I'm trying to install FC4 on a Toshiba M45-S165. One of the problems I have is the video card. This laptop comes with an ATI Radeon Xpress 200 video card. What I did until now: I installed the drivers from ATI, using yum. The patch appears to be correct. I tried both with the kernel 2.6.12-1.1390 and 2.6.11-1.1369 . The problem is that whenever I try to run fglrxconfig, I got this messege: - ATI Radeon 8500 / 9100 - ATI FireGL 8700 / 8800 / E1 - ATI FireGL T2 - ATI Radeon 9000 - ATI Radeon 9200 - ATI Radeon 9500 - ATI Radeon 9600 - ATI Radeon 9700 - ATI Radeon 9800 - ATI FireGL Z1 / X1 / X2 - ATI Mobility M9 - ATI Mobility FireGL 9000 - ATI Mobility M9PLUS - ATI FireGL V3100 / V5100 / V7100 My card is not listed. When I run the script, I cannot get the resolution of my screen, wich is 1280x800. Right now, I'm working with the VESA generic driver, which allows me to use a 1024x768 resolution (everything appears a little bit wider). My question is if somebody could make this specific card work under Linux, and which steps am I missing if that is the case. I already checked many posts for similar ATI cards this last days, but they don't apply to mine. I also did try all the other cards, but they are incompatible with mine (not totally sure about it). Thanx in advance, Chris. |

Hi,
I'm having the exact same problem as you.......spent a few weeks on this now, still no luck :/ |
SUSE 9.3 and ATI x200
Hi there,
Just wanted to let you know that I have SUSE 9.3 and it installs and works with x200 ATI cards without problems. You can boot SUSE of the CD without installing it to test compability. I am running 2.6.11.4 kernel with 1280x1024 flat panel with it. This is in Shuttle xPC ST20G5. Kuhazor |
Hi,
Could you run glxgears and tell me the fps you get please? I tried installing suse (switched over to fedora core 4 after though) and I remember it ran fine...but glxgears gave the same fps as it does on fc4. Thanks -Gurpy |
FPS
I am getting about 800fps on x64 3000+ Athlon.
|
Ohhh ok, thanks for the info.....I was hoping to be getting a few thousand fps......guess i'll have to get a different video card for that to be able to happen though lol
|
I am having the same problem as izelpii while helping a relative install Suse 9.3 to a HP zv6000 laptop.
Card not in database. Correct resolution not available. ATI has a "ATI Proprietary Linux x86_64 Driver 8.13.4 for Radeon Xpress 200 Series" (the laptop is an AMD64) on their site. On first inspection I do not see either an INSTALL or README in the main directory. There was something in the glxgears (or such) directory that may be what I need to read. I have read that people seem to have luck with this but possibly no 3D acceleration. My next step was going to be to check the ATI driver directories further for a README or INSTALL file and failing that (or supplementing that) to use the SUSE README that is for drivers that do NOT support the x200 graphics. kuhazor I do not see how you could have x200 drivers working. SUSE 9.3 does boot up fine but just with the VESA drivers for me. |
I too have the same graphics chip and have the same issues. I managed to be able to get the card working with out the vesa driver using a generic radeon driver that came with my distro (mepis), however it's no better than the vesa driver because there is no direct rendering support.
I have yet to try the latest version of the driver provided on ATI's site but I might. I am still new to linux overall and wouldn't know how to uninstall the driver if something happened and it didn't work. If any brave souls who have expierence working with video drivers want to experiement with ATI's newest drivers, please report any progress back here. Or if anyone of you know how I would go about downgrading in case of a problem; if you could instruct me on that, I would be glad to try it. |
Already tried em, didn't work for me.
|
My SUSE 9.3 is using VESA mode so it is slow and no 3D acceleration.
When I try to install the ATI driver, it stops to conflict with itself? ATI support is really bad. The SH script on their site doesn't even run on SUSE, it dies to an error. rpm -ivh fglrx64_4_3_0-8.13.4-1.x86_64.rpm error: Failed dependencies: fglrx conflicts with fglrx64_4_3_0-8.13.4-1 The read me file for the driver is pretty good, but no help there. I think some of you folks missed this on ATI's website. Here is the link: http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_8.13.4.html Has anyone contacted ATI, because I am about to. I am also contacting SUSE, these issues need to be figured out. Same happens even with force... Any help there? Thanks, |
I created support ticket with ATI and pointed them down to read this forum... Hopefully we will get some responses to various problems with this chipset.

Hi
Hi,
I created a similar ticket. I hope they really work on it. By the way, I tried SUSE live cd, just in case, but it gives me the same results. (it works with a 1024x768 resolution, and there's no way to change it). |
you should get nvidia chipsets because ati drivers are not good at all for linux but nvidia chipset are offically supported by nvidia
|
Sad, but true
Hey,
That's totally true. If somebody is planning to buy a laptop, forget about ATI, go for nVidea. ATI really sucks. Until now, I have no answer from this guys, and I spent hours and hours trying to make my card work without any result (I don't use Windows). If you plan to buy something, avoid ATI. Their Linux support still is not enough good. |
