Just reporting that I installed the git code, and even 2D performance is pretty poor. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if this should be expected.

M56: DRI and EXA == system freeze
by Thomas Meyer 22 Feb '09

22 Feb '09

Hi, 1.) Is DRI and EXA supposed to work on an M56 chip? Because my system freezes completely, shortly (2-5 sec.) after starting an 3D application. Removing EXA and using XAA (default?) and I can play World of Goo as much as I like! I.e. no system freeze, but having from time to time a few minor glitches in the game. radeonhd version is 1.2.4 build from git branch master, commit ad6c789a. libdrm version is 2.4.0-0.21.fc10 kernel is 2.6.29-rc4. 2.) Using 3D creates interrupt bonus After closing the 3D application, I see an increased interrupt activity from the radeon device. The device seems to fire at 60 HZ after the 3D application is closed. Is it possible to only have this 60 extra interrupts per second while using the 3D interface?

0x71C5:0x103C:0x309F: ATI Technologies Inc M56P [Radeon Mobility X1600] in HP nx9420 laptop
by Rutger van Bergen 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

Hello, This is an update to the message I sent earlier today (included below, for your reference). I fixed the "can't load radeon kernel module" error, by compiling in the radeon DRM driver... yes, I am ashamed. However, DRI still doesn't work. During X startup, I get the following output: ... drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 7, (OK) drmOpenByBusid: Searching for BusID pci:0000:01:00.0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 7, (OK) drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor returns 7 drmOpenByBusid: drmGetBusid reports pci:0000:01:00.0 (EE) AIGLX error: Calling driver entry point failed(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering ... Hope this helps in finding the problem. Best regards, Rutger van Bergen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help(a)opensuse.org

RE: [radeonhd] reduce the amount of RAM installed on newer ASUS laptops
by Victor Rodriguez 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

Come on, is that true? remove my RAM? is there any other way to have it working? Do you think it depends on the distro? at this time I've been working with ubuntu 8.10, but it seems it might work in other distros, openSuse for example, because I've tried also in fedora and mandriva and it doesn't work! Or it might depend on the brand? ASUS, what do you think? At this time I've found several reports for ASUS, unofficial and no solutions so far.

If that doesn't work, the guidance on the wiki refers to having only 2GB of physical memory installed. You need to remove enough RAM modules such that only 2GB of physical memory remain. Consult the relevant manuals for your laptop on how to perform this.

reduce the amount of RAM installed on newer ASUS laptops
by Victor Rodriguez 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

hello all, I've just suscribed myself to this list due to a problem I have with an ATI radeon HD3470, finally I found radeonhd and more precisely the "Known Bugs & Limitations" section which textullay says: "**Newer ASUS laptops with more than 2GB of memory** ... several reports about getting RadeonHD to work on Linux on ASUS laptops ... --> For now the only work around is to **reduce the amount of RAM installed to 2GB or less**" I will infinitely appreciate if somebody can give me a hand or some guidance on how to reduce the amount of RAM installed, it's not matter of radeonhd it is more linux usage I think =) Thanks in advance.
