3D graphics on RS480 Mother Board
Hi I installed SuSe 9.3 Profesional on my AMD 64 3200 machine. It have RS480 MOBO which is a basically a ATI chip Set based MOBO. I downloaded the driver from ATI site but still I am unable to enable the 3D Acceleration. The graphics processor is inbuit in the MOBO and it is ATI Xpress 200 series chip. Basically the X will not start with the ATI's Driver. TIA Anirban Biswas. -- Masjid dha de, mandir dha de, dha de jo kucch dainda Par kisi da dil na dhain, Rab dilan vich rehnda..

In the "Linux Drivers and Software" section, go to "Motherboards with ATI Graphics" (x86_64 part). There, select "ATI Proprietary Linux x86_64 Driver 8.16.20 for Radeon Xpress 200 Series" and download the X.Org 6.8 version. Then you need to run fglrxconfig to create an xorg.conf. Works for me on a MSI S270. I followed the instructions on this page: http://www-users.rwth-aachen.de/Bodo.von.der.Heiden/msi_s270.htm#Grafik The page is German, but if you know that "Antwort" is the supposed answer, you should get through the fglrxconfig section fine. -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" http://www.jwdt.com/~paysan/
Hi
It worked nicely , acctually I choosed the driver installer for X86 so it
did not work. So thanks a lot my friend. After guying my new computer the 3D
acceleration is working for first time..

how do you verify if you are running a 64bit driver?

As root, I can do # file /usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg /usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg: setuid ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.4.1, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped If this is a 64-bit executable, you need a 64 bit driver. Otherwise, you'd know when you install your Linux system if you installed a 32 bit or 64 bit version ;-). -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" http://www.jwdt.com/~paysan/
