Problems with Radeon 9600 on RedHat 9
Hi everybody,
I have a problem with the ATI Radeon 9600. I installed the ATI driver with 'rpm -Uvh drivername.rpm --force' but there was an error:
*** Trying to install a precompiled kernel module.
*** WARNING ***
Tailored kernel module for fglrx not present in your system.
You must go to /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod subdir
and execute './make.sh' to build a fully customed kernel module.
Afterwards go to /lib/modules/fglrx and run './make_install.sh'
in order to install the module into your kernel's module repository.
(see readme.txt for more details.)
As of now you can still run your XServer in 2D, but hardware acclerated
OpenGL will not work and 2D graphics will lack performance.
failed.
*** Found kernel module build environment, generating kernel module now.
ATI module generator V 2.0
==========================
(Then it starts to install the driver, but after installing OpenGL doesn't work)
I saw here in the forum that some motherboards are not supported by older kernels, and perhaps thats the problem .... I have redhat 9 with kernel 2.4.20-8, AMD Athlon with GA-7VX motherboard and VIA KX133 chipset
Thx for help
