https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=222993 Summary: all fglrx ati drivers from 8.29.6 up to 8.31.5 don't work on hp nc8430 notebook. 8.28.8 works. Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X11 3rd Party AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: kra@ecolog.at QAContact: sndirsch@novell.com CC: mhopf@novell.com on a hp nc8430 notebook (core duo t2500 cpu & mobility radeon x1600) running suse linux 10.1 with kernel 2.6.16 and xorg 6.9.0 the latest driver which is working is 8.28.8. all other drivers since this version are not working! they all fail starting xorg with the error-message "preinitdal failed". i think it has something to do with kernel and xorg, because a friend of mine made the 8.30.3 driver working on the same hardware (nc8430) but running fedora core 6 with kernel 2.6.18 and xorg 7.1. look at this mailinglist entry: http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-xfree86/2006-Sep/0005.html i will attach a detailed log file from the suse xorg-config-utility sax2. it includes the xorg.conf and the Xorg.log files. what happend between 8.28.8 and 8.29.6? why are x1600 boards not working? could you guys do anythinig to force ati to fix this? i also heard about that fglrx doesn't work with xorg7.2 which is shipped with opensuse10.2. what about that? what should i do, when opensuse10.2 comes out? i want upgrade, but i can't! please look at http://support.ati.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=894 this is the ticket i created at the ati-support-portal. but they don't care.... also look at: http://www.linux-club.de/viewtopic.php?p=419211 and http://www.linuxforen.de/forums/showthread.php?p=1456841 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
