radeon unable to load dri

cyberia_2ooo · 11-05-2003, 01:39 PM

i installed the new fglrx official modules from ati....

now x fails to load dri.

here is the XFree86.0.log relevant section:

(II) fglrx(0): [drm] register handle = 0xe0020000
(EE) fglrx(0): [agp] unable to acquire AGP, error "xf86_ENOMEM"
(EE) fglrx(0): cannot init AGP
(II) fglrx(0): [drm] removed 1 reserved context for kernel
(II) fglrx(0): [drm] unmapping 8192 bytes of SAREA 0xd4a65000 at 0x40026000
(WW) fglrx(0): ***********************************************
(WW) fglrx(0): * DRI initialization failed! *
(WW) fglrx(0): * (maybe driver kernel module missing or bad) *
(WW) fglrx(0): * 2D acceleraton available (MMIO) *
(WW) fglrx(0): * no 3D acceleration available *
(WW) fglrx(0): ********************************************* *

and dmesg ineresting part is (when using agp driver supplied with the fglrx module):
[fglrx] Maximum main memory to use for locked dma buffers: 198 MBytes.
[fglrx] module loaded - fglrx 3.2.5 [Aug 6 2003] on minor 0

and when using the kernel(2.4.21) agpgart module with agp_try_unsupported=1 set (using via KT400 chipset which is not reckognized by the kernel module):

might I add... that when i used an older, unofficial version of fglrx the dri loaded and there was an acceleration (which wasn't perfect, that's why i installed the new drivers)

here are some relavant parts of my working configuration for a ATI Radeon 9000, with the latest drivers. You could compare it with your configuration, for example, with "vimdiff" I haven't enabled the TV-out yet, and I think your screen needs to run in 24bpp.

There are some changes in the newest ATI drivers:
* the fglrx file is no longer stored in /lib/modules/fglrx/fglrx-version.o, but in the /lib/modules/kernel-version/.../dri/ folder.
* older versions used an internal AGP driver. The latest fglrx module lets you choose what you want.. I've enabled to use the external agpgart module, so make sure you've loaded it before you start X.

hope this helps
