0x9610:0x1458:0xD000: Gigabyte MA78GM-S2H
Hi. as per the xorg log file I'm reporting a couple problems here. First off it says "unkown card detected" I presume thats somewhat normal for 780g boards? Secondly I have to set the HPD option to off or the driver disables my VGA port completely. And last, I have a kvm that doesn't seem to load up the port properly, so the driver never even bothers to enable the VGA port (no not using the kvm isn't an option, and modifying the kvm to fix the problem is more than I want to mess with). I've actually grabbed the drivers from git and made a small change to have it skip the probing and just assume the port is connected, and it works fine. In the future an xorg config option to force enable a port would be quite handy. Oh, and with KDE4 from svn (as of today), it seems to somehow grab the entire card all to itself. glxgears and glxinfo exit with: Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual. I updated kde4 a few days ago and was getting just a blank black screen, I can't say if that was kde's fault or radeonhd's, but with the update to kde I made today, everything seems to work. I tried to send my xorg log and config files, but your mail server rejected it (plain text files of all things). -- Thomas Fjellstrom tfjellstrom@shaw.ca -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org

Can you run conntest as described in the ReadMe? Once per output attached.

Can you test this system without the KVM once to be sure the probing principally works?

There is - you have to configure a monitor section and use Option "Enable" in this monitor section. See the example xorg.conf in http://www.x.org/wiki/radeonhd

Check the log whether DRI/DRM is active and working. Maybe invoke glxgears with LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose.

I don't understand, others don't have any issues posting files...
