Unable to use ATI's fglrx (8.29.6) on sid's X.org (7.1.1)
hi.
I have a 2.6.18 SMP vanilla kernel, ati radeon m x1600 and xorg 7.1.1.
while using xorg 6.9.0 I had no problem at all and the fglrx module was loaded correctly.
A couple days ago i decided to switch from testing to unstable following the procedure on debian's website.
but unfortunately since then the fglrx stopped being used as a primary driver and I can't use hw accelleration.
I googled a bit but nothing useful.
This is wh:at I get
Code:
stariez:~# fglrxinfo
display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: [link to mesa]
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.5.1)
but the module is loaded correctly at boot (I added it to /etc/modules):
Code:
stariez:~# dmesg | grep fglrx
fglrx: module license 'Proprietary. (C) 2002 - ATI Technologies, Starnberg, GERMANY' taints kernel.
[fglrx] Maximum main memory to use for locked dma buffers: 927 MBytes.
[fglrx] module loaded - fglrx 8.29.6 [Sep 19 2006] on minor 0
[fglrx] total GART = 134217728
[fglrx] free GART = 118226944
[fglrx] max single GART = 118226944
[fglrx] total LFB = 127889408
[fglrx] free LFB = 127889408
[fglrx] max single LFB = 127889408
[fglrx] total Inv = 0
[fglrx] free Inv = 0
[fglrx] max single Inv = 0
[fglrx] total TIM = 0
Code:
stariez:~# lsmod | grep fglrx
fglrx 395436 12
agpgart 30604 2 fglrx,intel_agp
it seems like xorg misteriously switches from ati's module to mesa libs:
[Xorg.0.log is too long, I'ill publish it somewhere else]
and this is my xorg.conf:

What should I do to get finally the fglrx module to be used by xorg?
