R600 Gallium3D Getting Close On OpenGL 3.3 Support

/opt/xorg/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-Device: Driver "ati"

It was my impression, that the ddx was called "radeonsi" or at least "radeon" and not "ati".

Your Xorg.0.log says

[  1169.313] (II) LoadModule: "radeon"

so your Device section with the "ati" driver is probably not used.


Edit:

--with-dri-drivers=radeon

Pretty sure, that doesn't do anything. But it may be necessary to put swrast there if it doesn't compile because of som stupid build system dependency. If not, Just a space character will be interpreted as an empty list, otherwise it will build some default like r300 I think.

Changing the DDX name to "radeon" or "radeonsi" didn't make a difference. Neither did adding swrast to --with-dri-drivers.

Is it actually getting picked up by the xserver however? Previously it was not. Can you post your xorg log? It would be easier to track all of this if you opened a bug:

Done, https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59703

The DDX is really called "ati", which should load "radeon" for you.

"--with-dri-drivers=radeon" builds the R100 driver. Just set empty "--with-dri-drivers=" and set "--with-gallium-drivers=" to one of r300, r600, radeonsi. I think you also need to enable EGL.

Good to know. X -configure always generated "radeon" for me so I wrongly assumed it was radeon.

"--with-dri-drivers=radeon" builds the R100 driver. Just set empty "--with-dri-drivers=" and set "--with-gallium-drivers=" to one of r300, r600, radeonsi. I think you also need to enable EGL.

I think I had two times a problem with mesa git with that. First for some reason the build system depended on swrast being built and much later it wouldn't compile without a dri driver. These problems get fixed but they seem to be recurring, so I guess there isn't too much ongoing testing going into specialized builds from git master…

I got it to work. See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59703#c8.
