I also say thanks to all. I used the radeonhd often. A couple of different times, the distribution changed kernels and fglrx/Catalyst would not compile. At that time, radeonhd was the ONLY driver...

Confirmed. Thanks

Problem with compiling mesa today from git. Getting a zillion errors on main/api_exec_es1.c. I'll show the last one:

main/api_exec_es1.c:4746: error: '_mesa_Viewport' undeclared (first use in...

With build of 2.6.34-rc3, xine now plays audio OK over hdmi again. mplayer continues to work. Didn't work with rc1. I didn't see much in changelog for -rc2 and didn't try it.

Only radeon part...

Nevermind.

Somehow a page-return got installed so that xargs strip looked like xargs str. Not sure how this could have happened though as I have a batch file that calls the slackbuild. The only...

Thanks for response.

This is same slackbuild I've used for last 9-12 months. It always worked fine before. I could post if its helpful. But you may be right. I just watched it and it looks...

I'm getting the following mesa compile error:
/bin/ginstall -c -d /tmp/SBo/package-mesa/usr/include/GL
/bin/ginstall -c -d /tmp/SBo/package-mesa/usr/lib64
/bin/ginstall -c -d...

Not sure about ubuntu but you need to put the two (evidently proprietary) firmware files in the kernel source prior to compiling kernel.

I placed these at .../linux-2.6.33-rc8/firmware/radeon.

ATI confirms. Question: Does this impact linux?

Toms Hardware has a post about problems with various boards using amd/ati chips HD4000 and HD5000 series. At this time there is also 6 pages of comments which suggest problem might be: production...

So for r600 does this line change to:?

ln -s radeong_dri.so r600_dri.so

Just built 2.6.33-rc5

Same stuttering problem occurs with audio over hdmi in xine.

OK, that worked. I must not have read close enough before as I put the files at /lib/firmware and not in the src kernel firmware directory.

So it switches into kms about 1-1.5 seconds into...

I upgraded the two protos a couple of days ago and everything worked fine. I just recompiled libdrm, mesa, xf...ati, and xf...radeonhd. No problems.

I still use in the configure

Just built 2.6.32.3. Made no changes to drm/mesa/radeon (ati)/or radeonhd. Built kernel without staging and without much of anything regarding graphics but agpgart is module.

Using radeon, no...

So what's the best value now for a linux machine, all things considered? Gotta be Athlon II X4 620 (Propus 4c), runs at 95w around $100.
The 9150e also quad but runs at 65w and $10 less but 20-25%...

Not sure how good/fair 3DMark Vantage 1.0.2 CPU is but you can see a comparison.

Reviewing the article, they're saying the new i3 and i5 are dual core and have integrated graphics. So they...

Excellent point. I did not notice those. I just assumed Tom's would do a fair comparison. Starts to look a little biased if they deliberately picked a slower chip. I have't kept up with AMDs PCU...

Maybe not right forum but wow, have you seen this. Intel integrates HD video into main processor. Results seem good. The conclusion would seem to be depressing for AMD.

I've used AMD on my last...

I just tried kernel 2.6.33-rc3 and the audio stuttering over HDMI still occurs with xine but not with mplayer.

I then booted 2.6.29.6 kernel and loaded catalyst 9-12. No audio stuttering in xine...
