recompiled and direct rendering stopped [radeon 9800]
i recompiled my kernel a few hours ago as i was trying to get midi output working. under Sound>ALSA a midi driver which i thought i neededwas set to be build in.
i changed nothing else. then recomplied but alas that didnt solve my midi problem, ok well its really not important........ then i relasied that direct rendering had stopped working :( Code:
ed@HELIX:~$ lsmod thats one thing that annoys me about linux. why when you recompile and change nothing do things just break! bahhhh Code:
ed@HELIX:~$ fglrxinfo Code:
ed@HELIX:~$ fgl_glxgears |
You need to rebuild and reinstall the fglrx module for your new kernel - when you recompile your current kernel, or build a new one, all external kernel modules are lost and must be rebuilt and reinstalled - this is nothing new, just something you should be aware of.
As root/ using su, run Code:
cd /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod |
ahhhhhh right. make sense.
thats why i couldnt get the fglrx module to load! thanks its working :) |
