Some kind soul may be able to help us port it to the BSDs and OpenSOLARIS.

According the the log file you are using plain old VGA. So there is nothing special related to the output. What happens when you switch back with crtl+alt+KP_- ?

The mode line used doesn't coincide with the one provided by the display. Have you tried commenting out your monitor section like the log file suggested?

Matthew, have you tried the latest version of the driver? There are some interdependecies between BIOS and driver that could lead to these problems, however we tried to disable these. Matthew said, that the system will freeze after you logged in with GDM. This happens when he boots with AC power attached I assume. Again this is strange because presently the driver doesn't use any acceleration, so after the chip is running there is pure software framebuffer access. It would be interesting to see if the lockup also occurs when the system is sitting there witout logging in.

The priority list of handling the outstanding issues is both controlled by the urgency of the task (ie. how many users are affected) and by the availibility of information required to complete the task.

We don't know for sure, yet. In your version the LVTMA support doesn't handle external TMDS, yet. Luc is working on that. Once this is working we can verify if the assumption in the connector table code is correct. If not we need to dig for more information about the output linked to a connector. However the load detection information could suggest that this assumption is correct in your case.

After you mentioned it it appeared strange to me, too, so I've just checked, libpci is not available as a shared library here. Frankly I have no idea why.

No X and Unknown card detected - PowerColor X1950 Pro AGP
by David Morgado 10 Nov '07

10 Nov '07

Hi, As the subject states X is unable to start. I have this RV570 based card: PowerColor X1950 Pro AGP This card has dual DVI connectors and 512MB GDDR3, and a bunch of video out stuff but that is not important for now. The id is 0x7280:0x148C:0x2223 Xorg.0.log, conntest results and VBIOS dump fallow attached. I hope I did all this correctly since I don't know what to expect from rhd_conntest output. Thanks David Morgado
