fglrx 8.8.25 make.sh error

EDIT:
This thread is regarding the 8.10.19 drivers.

Hi all,

The previous versions of the driver did managet to be compiled and installed.. But the new version (fglrx_6_8_0-8.8.25-1.i386) now is giving me a very strange error when i
sh make.sh

Anyone have any ideas on the cause of the error?

Btw, i'm on kernel 2.6.11

It seems to be a problem with installed linux kernel sources or with their version conflict respectively.
Your system looks like to be running on 2.6.11 kernel. Check if your installed kernel sources package is the same version (ls /var/log/packages/kernel-source*).

Thanks dunric

I don't have my kernel listed in /var/log/packages. And i've deleted all the other versions, just keeping the 2.6.11 src. But still it doesn't like it (or something ..)

1) 8.10.19 is the latest, not 8.8.25

2) You *will* need a patch to install the ATi drivers on 2.6.11 (but I don't know of any yet since I'm still waiting for Reiser4 patches to 2.6.11 vanilla)

Originally posted by xushi And i've deleted all the other versions, just keeping the 2.6.11 src.

Did you delete the kernel-headers package as well (/var/log/packages/kernel-headers-2.4.xx-i386-1)? If so you'll need to re-install the kernel headers package.

HTH,

Luckely, no i havent deleted the headers yet. I'll keep everyone informed incase i do find the patch.

The patch-file is attached to this post:

EDIT:
Cleared previous message.. Here's the problem.

patched successfully, but when i 'sh make.sh' i get this warning.

You must change your working directory to /lib/modules/fglrx
and then call ./make_install.sh in order to install the built module.

Fair enough... when i 'sh make_install.sh', i get this error

- creating symlink
- recreating module dependency list
- trying a sample load of the kernel module
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.11/kernel/drivers/char/drm/fglrx.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

dmesg shows the following

fglrx: module license 'Proprietary. (C) 2002 - ATI Technologies, Starnberg, GERMANY' taints kernel.
fglrx: Unknown symbol remap_page_range

ouch =/

hm the same here... perhaps I find time to investigate it later.

Has anyone advanced in this problem, I seem to have the same one

-Matteuz

I'm still stuck on the matter =/

But if i'll keep this post updated if i figure it out. I hope everyone else does =)

Hi there, I'm new to this board.. found this thread with google.

To load the fglrx module you first have to apply the patch attached to the post linked by morphus, then you have to replace any occurrence of remap_page_range with remap_pfn_range in firegl_public.c, then rebuild the module.

Let me now if it works for you, I didn't tested it yet with a full working Xorg but it seems to load flawlessly.

Cheers

Crap. X says fglrx can't be located, and there's no fglrx_drv.o in usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers indeed. Ok what now? I'm stuck.

There is a new Kernel out 2.6.11.3. Installed that, running 10.1, latest fglrx-8.10.19 drivers, running a ati 9600 pro turbo(laptop).

Originally, Xorg would freeze on startup after applying the patch shown earlier in this thread and the remap_page_range to remap_pfn_range fix, while running 2.6.11.2.

After updating to 2.6.11.3 and applying only the two patches located here: http://www.rage3d.com/board/showthread.php?t=33806492 it is up and running. Only noticed one issue since, it doesn't return correctly to the console after exiting X, however runs fine in X. Hope this info helps.

Ok I'll try with the 2.6.11.3 kernel.. just a guess, are you using the radeonfb framebuffer driver in console?
