i have strange problem with my 9700 mobility. when i use compiz, i don't have freeze, when i use metacity, after 2-3 minutes, pc freeze and i must force power off. in my xorg.log i have this:
...

R300 support will be available into catalyst 9.2

so, i must install driver and then copy fglrx_drv.so from x740 directory?

one thing that i don't understand: fglrx_drv.so compiled for 1.4.99.906 but atiddxSetup detected X.org 7.1.-1.901 and...

installation is done right with --buildpkg Ubuntu/Jaunty and catalyst installer too...seem that fglrx driver detect xorg 7.1 but compile driver for xorg 7.4...i have xorg 7.4

yes, i can see xYYY dirs, how can i solve this problem?

(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//fglrx_drv.so

you can't install this driver on jaunty: there is support for jaunty in --listpkg and directory x740 but fglrx module is compiled for xorg 7.1 and not 7.4...

(EE) Failed to load module "fglrx" (module requirement mismatch, 0)

error with jaunty (doesn't detect xorg 7.4)

driver support jaunty (infact Ubuntu/Jaunty is present in --listpkg and...

libdrm-dev already installed...but reinstalling it, problem was fixed, thanks :)

error when i compile latest driver:

In file included from /usr/include/X11/dri/xf86dri.h:43,
from /usr/include/xorg/dri.h:41,
from radeon.h:75,

EDIT:
with option migrationheuristic (greedy), freeze appears with gnome mplayer, with vlc no problem

no, same error....i added recently EXAVSync in my xorg.conf

system: ubuntu 8.10
ati driver (opensource): compiled from git (latest version)
device: ati radeon mobility 9700

xorg.conf

Driver "ati"
Option "RenderAccel" "true"...

ati 8.12 doesn't work on radeon 9700. why AMD doesn't fix this problem or why doesn't report on release note "r300 support dropped"? :@

@Kano

i have same problem, ati mobility 9700 on ubuntu intrepid 8.10 (768 mb ram, 32 bit, pentium-M dothan)

grep pae /proc/cpuinfo -> nothing, cpu doesn't support PAE

sudo modprobe -v fglrx

(WW)...

can you explain how to fix these errors with your script?
one question: can i use phorogit Catalyst Packaging Script to fix these errors?

it's wrong build scripts using first install mode but second error doesn't depend on build script, i think but maybe r300 support dropped.

hi, i would like to report 2 errors installing latest ati driver (8.11) on ubuntu intrepid

- installing driver with --buildpkg Ubuntu/intrepid, i have this error:
