RS485 (Radeon Xpress 1100 IGP), F9 no 3D no DRI with ati-6.8.192-rc2
I have RS485 [Radeon Xpress 1100 IGP] integrated chip in my laptop and it has lots of problems with the fglrx driver. In particular fglrx doesn't like the 2.6.25 kernel and the xorg in my F9. SO i decided to swith to the open source ati driver.
My cards is (from lspci -vvv):
I searched through this forum and lots of people claim they've made it work with their ati cards. But I cannot. I used F9 and here what my xorg.conf looks like:Code:01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS485 [Radeon Xpress 1100 IGP] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Unknown device 010f Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap+ 66MHz+ UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx- Latency: 66 (2000ns min), Cache Line Size: 32 bytes Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 11 Region 0: Memory at c8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M] Region 1: I/O ports at 9000 [size=256] Region 2: Memory at c0100000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1+ D2+ AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot-,D3cold-) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- Kernel modules: radeonfb

with the fglrx I got about 1700 FPS. but with the ati-6.8.192 it is only about 250 FPS. with opensuse live it goes to about 550 FPS. the actual results areCode:mesa-libGL-7.1-0.35.fc9.i386 mesa-libGLU-7.1-0.35.fc9.i386 mesa-libOSMesa-7.1-0.35.fc9.i386 xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.8.0-18.fc9.i386 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.4.99.902-3.20080612.fc9.i386 xorg-x11-server-utils-7.3-3.fc9.i386 xorg-x11-drv-vesa-1.3.0-15.20080404.fc9.i386 xorg-x11-server-common-1.4.99.902-3.20080612.fc9.i386 glx-utils-7.1-0.35.fc9.i386
Because I cannot attach files here I zipped them and uploaded them on /files/126029926/info-files.tar.bz2.html. this is hosted on rapidshare"#dot#"com. "Sorry but this is no spam".

Any ideas how to make my it work with the foss ati driver?

Yes, I already saw your log file.
You're definitely not using the latest DRM available. The radeon kernel module in git is at 1.29.0, and that's what I'm using on my Xpress 1150. I'm doubtful that 1.28.0 would be new enough.
can you post your xorg.0.log file?
the drm and the radeon modules date back to 2006 !!! I have 2.6.25.6 kernel. this means, they've not been updated for 2 years!?
Anyway do you have any problems with your 1150? how many FPS do you get with the lastes driver? My ~ 200 FPS are so annoying - I cannot even surf the web!
I'll try the git module and report back. Anyother ideas where the problem could be?
I can't post it at the moment... Besides, there's no advantage to posting it.
The date from the drm modules in the 'dmesg' do not reflect when the modules were created or last updated.
I have no real problems with my 1150 with the open source drivers. Since you haven't specified what application you'd like my framerate from, I can only assume you mean glxgears. I refuse to mention my glxgears framerate because it is completely and totally irrelevant. glxgears framerate does not represent any real world performance.
Update your DRM from git, and try again. If you continue to have problems, show us your new /var/log/Xorg.0.log file and your new 'dmesg'.
Adam
The DRI is disabled by default on some RS4xx IGP chips since they used to hang on DRI init. This may be fixed now, but I don't have the hw to test. You'll need to enable it by adding:
Option "DRI" "True"
to the device section of your config.
It works now :)
That was it
