<0> Ahoy! Does anybody in here know how to get tv-out working properly on an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro ?
<1> has some of you got osx86 and patched radeon9700.kext?
<2> is there any chance of getting some ati-drivers to work with xorg 7.1.1?
<3> how i turn active the UseInternalAGP option?
<4> hehehe, http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Troubleshooting -- excellent
<5> For some reason, I can go at 1280x1024 and 1600x1200, but not 1400x1050 using fglrx. Could anybody help?
<6> 1400x1050 probably requires a modeline unless that's your LCD's native res
<6> http://sh.nu/nvidia/gtf.php
<4> I'm trying to install the proprietary driver, but it dies with SIGSEGV.
<4> before that, it says:
<4> (EE) fglrx(0): PreInitDAL failed
<4> (EE) fglrx(0): R200PreInit failed
<4> this is a "RADEON XPRESS 200 (RS480 5954)"
<7> Does the fglrx driver have Xvideo support for Radeon X1400 ?
<7> I do have VideoOverlay on and OpenGLOverlay off with load extmod in my Xconfig but xvinfo shows no Xvideo support !
<8> lo all
<8> kjetilho: you busy?
<8> let me pastebin my error
<4> go ahead, but I don't know anything :)
<8> eish
<8> :P
<8> http://pastebin.ca/86267
<4> interesting, did you do anything to get the backtrace?
<8> ope
<4> anyway, aflgrx doesn't support anyother Depth than 24
<4> it seems you have a section with Depth 8 in your config?
<8> I removed it
<8> and set defaultdepth
<8> brb
<9> hey can anyone help me with google earth causing my radeon (using latest fglrx drivers) to hardlock my system? (using ubuntu(
<4> have you tried: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Troubleshooting ?
<9> LOL
<4> never mind me, I'm a n00b. it's hard to support closed source from the outside ...
<9> :D
<6> scott: usually hard locks are AGP issues
<6> scott: or cooling/hardware problems
<9> ok
<9> currently my xorg.conf sets useinternalagpgart = no
<9> shall i try yes?
<9> currently have: Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "no" and Option "KernelModuleParm" "agplock=0"
<9> also if you could be so kind, could you explain what Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off" does/means?
<6> leave it off
<6> OpenGLOverlay is mostly intended for workstation cards
<9> ok
<6> and does stuff you don't need
<6> (and will cause problems if enabled)
<9> so should i enable it to use interal agp gart and se if that fixes it?
<6> the UseInternalAGPGART can only work at "yes" if you don't have kernel AGP support.. but switching to internal AGPGART is definitely worth a try
<9> also what about the agplock option?
<6> you'll have to 1) blacklist your AGP module from loading (***uming it's a module.. if it's not, you'll have to recompile the kernel)
<6> 2) change that option to "yes"
<6> and 3) reboot (you can't just restart the X server)
<4> rmmod isn't enough?
<9> right :(
<6> scott: you can try changing agplock
<6> or commenting that option out
<6> kjetilho: nope
<9> ok, will try commenting it out
<6> kjetilho: it'll crash the machine if you just unload the module
<6> (and load the fglrx internal AGPGART)
<4> oops :)
<6> same thing happens when switching AGP drivers with nVidia's drivers
<6> so i think it's something weird with AGP
<9> right, i will hopefully be right back :)
<6> good luck :)
<9> thanks :)
<9> bah, still hardlocks :(, sorry to say this, but ati's drivers for linux do really **** (i know they have come along way recently, but they still really lag behind winblows :()
<6> :(
<6> you can try setting AGP to 1x in the BIOS
<9> looks like im off out to shop for an nvidia card :(
<6> does it hardlock immediately?
<9> no
<9> only after a few minutes of zooming into places
<6> ais there any way you can get the dmesg output when it hardlocks?
<6> erh, s/^a//
<9> not sure (im still quite newb to linux ;))
<6> also, do you know if it hardlocks in windows or not? :D
<9> pretty sure it doesnt as ive tried it previously in it and it hasnt
<6> k
<6> which card is it?
<9> radeon 9600pro
<4> scott: dmesg output is supposed to go in /var/log/messages but if it hardlocks too quickly, it doesn't have time to hit disk
<9> although it recognises it as a generic 9600
<9> what should i be looking for in it?
<6> scott: "OOPS"
<4> the messages just before the start of the next kernel boot
<6> or, yeah
<6> that'd probably be easier to find
<9> results are: http://rafb.net/paste/results/v5NWqg51.html
<6> SiS /o\
<9> indeed :(
<6> it didn't use the internal support fwiw
<9> yeah, just read :(
<4> so no more lines until the start of the next boot?
<6> you'll have to blacklist the SiS driver if you want it to use internal AGPGART
<9> right :S
<6> by putting a line that says 'blacklist name-of-module' in /etc/modprobe.d/some-file, then running update-modules.. erh, you did say you're running ubuntu right?
<6> maybe that was someone else
<9> yeah
<6> oh, you're running ubuntu
<6> yeah, then do that
<6> i dunno the name of the module though
<6> lsmod | grep -i '(agp|sis)' may tell you
<6> it'll be agp-something i think
<6> (and, not agpgart.. don't blacklist agpgart)
<9> that command ddint output a sausage :(
<6> :(
<6> paste the full output somewhere i guess
<9> of the dmesg?
<6> of 'lsmod'
<9> kk
<9> sis_agp , sounds like we have a winner
<6> yeah
<6> looks like it
<9> sis_agp 9028 1
<6> so, put blacklist sis_agp in /etc/modprobe.d/some-file and run update-modules
<6> the name of the file doesn't matter too much
<6> there's a "blacklist" file already, but i recommend putting it in something else
<6> "sis_agp" possibly
<9> ah ok
<9> was about to put it in the blacklist file
<6> the only reason i don't reccomend that is because that file gets updated from time to time, and you probably don't want to manually merge the changes
<9> ah oky
<9> ran update-modules (as sudo) no output was given though...that normal?
<6> yeah
<9> right, so a reboot and retry is in order?
<6> yep
<6> good luck again :)
<9> do i need to cleanout the dmesg file first?
<9> or just look for latest when i look
<6> if it doesn't run at all, then you'll want to remove the blacklist sis_agp :)
<6> just look for the latest when you look
<9> kk
<9> right, i better remember where the black list file is so i can remove if i need ;)
<6> hehe :)
<9> fingers crossed will be right back ;)
<4> zinx: the or in your regexp only works in egrep, not in plain grep ...
<6> kjetilho: oh, oops
<6> i needed \(\) i guess
<4> yep
<6> and possibly \| :(
<4> the parentheses were superfluous in this case, though
<6> old habit
<4> regexp syntaxes are a pain
<6> i do stuff like (1 + 1) too
<9> just about to try google earth
<6> good luck!
<9> ummmm
<9> my direct rendering has gone
<6> :o
<9> i no longer have direct rendering :(
