intel i810 problem
I have integrated i810 Intel video card with 1MB memory.
Display setup (RH9) claims that my video memory is 16MB. When I try to switch to 1Mb manually X windows won't start. Also my XFree86 Log says: (WW) I810(0): xf86AllocateGARTMemory: allocation of 1024 pages failed (Cannot allocate memory) So it seems like there is some problem There is no problem though in WinME. The card seems to work fine and I never had problem with any games. In Linux I can't run Tuxracer. It moves 1 screenshot every 2 secs. Any ideas on how to fix my problem. Thanks. |
Are you sure that your video card only has 1 meg of video memory? If it does, I suspect that it'll "share" the system memory to bring it up to something more reasonable, like 16 megs. You won't have 3D acceleration without DRI from http://dri.sourceforge.net/
Just grab the proper binaries and install them, then boot back into X, run glxinfo and you should see a line resembling: Direct Rendering: Yes This is what you want, if it still says no (as I assume it does now) then you'll have to do more twiddling before you can get 3D acceleration. |
Just let it think it has 16MBs
