How can I find which one? Neither YaST nor Apt return me a match for the radeon_drv.o file...

In an SUSE 10.0 environment you will find the driver as /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.o and the DRI module is located in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/radeon_dri.so

I think there's more than just that. With my old setup I had:
godoy@jupiter:~> locate radeon /lib/modules/2.6.13.2-2-smp/kernel/drivers/char/drm/radeon.ko /lib/modules/2.6.13.2-2-smp/kernel/drivers/video/aty/radeonfb.ko /usr/include/linux/radeonfb.h /usr/lib/directfb-0.9.22/gfxdrivers/libdirectfb_radeon.la /usr/lib/directfb-0.9.22/gfxdrivers/libdirectfb_radeon.so /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.7/i586-linux-thread-multi/linux/radeonfb.ph /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.1.0/vidix/radeon_vid.so /usr/share/sax/profile/radeon /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/radeon_dri.so /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.o godoy@jupiter:~>
With the new setup, after my upgrade with YaST and the 5 CD set:
godoy@jupiter:~> locate radeon /lib/modules/2.6.14-rc5-git5-20051027163336-smp/kernel/drivers/char/drm/radeon.ko /lib/modules/2.6.14-rc5-git5-20051027163336-smp/kernel/drivers/video/aty/radeonfb.ko /usr/include/linux/radeonfb.h /usr/lib/directfb-0.9.23/gfxdrivers/libdirectfb_radeon.la /usr/lib/directfb-0.9.23/gfxdrivers/libdirectfb_radeon.so /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.7/i586-linux-thread-multi/linux/radeonfb.ph /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.1.0/vidix/radeon_vid.so /usr/share/sax/profile/radeon /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/radeon_dri.so godoy@jupiter:~>
O.k., the *main* driver "radeon_drv.o" file isn't there. That's for sure ...
Is it possible that this is a packaging problem with xorg-x11-Mesa (this is the package that provides the radeon_dri.so file above)?
No, I don't think so. It might be more a problem of xorg-x11-server. This RPM usually contains all the *_drv.o files.
I can't. ;-) If I don't solve that, I'll have this crappy image on my notebook... :-) If I decide going back to the older kernel, I'd have problems with ACPI...
BTW: Which version of (open)SUSE are you using ? Maybe I missed that ... Never give up ! Best regards, Reinhard.
