This looks like a very old driver version and a very old problem that has been fixed a long time ago. Please get a newer driver. Check: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/radeonhd for information on how to do this.

So can we have a new release, please? I guess there's quite few of us running distros which what to package versioned releases...

Not kind of stable, packaged version.

Use one from git.

The git mesa, radeonhd libdrm packages work pretty well. I still don't have dri but xorg works faster and I can even switch to the VTs without to have to fear "that-black-screen-of-the-death-that-need-a-remote-terminal-in-order-to-kill-gdm". Thx :) I'm a bit sorry about the fact I could not have dri working. I'm waiting sooooo long. (EE) RADEONHD(0): RHDDRIVersionCheck: drmOpen("radeon", "pci:0000:01:00.0") failed. (WW) RADEONHD(0): RHDDRIPreInit: Version check failed. Disabling DRI. and (II) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI2 capable (II) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable (II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized /usr/lib64/dri/swrast_dri.so (II) GLX: Initialized DRISWRAST GL provider for screen 0 So I suppose the git driver doesn't contain any extra alpha 3D support for the card. Also, I don't understand the following message about the non git radeonhd, (II) RADEONHD: version 1.2.1, built from non-git sources I'm sure it is or comes the magic from mesa or libdrm (from git too) ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org

When the xf86-video-radeonhd build system cannot find the "git" program or the ".git/" directory in the source tree, you end up with this message.

If you could update your git xf86-video-radeonhd to at least 4dcc6aa0 and send me the "The following helps debug" comment from src/git_version.h, we could start finding out why.

I'm using gentoo and I have installed the xf86-video-radeonhd master branch as it is specified in the log file:

From git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-radeonhd 72feab0..4dcc6aa master -> master

The src/git_version.h output you asked is, [code] /* The following helps debug why we sometimes do not find ".git/": * abs_repo_dir="/usr/portage/distfiles/git-src/xf86-video-radeonhd" (should be "/path/to/.git") * abs_srcdir="/var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/xf86-video-radeonhd-9999/work/xf86-video-radeonhd-9999" (absolute top source dir "/path/to") * git_repo_dir="/usr/portage/distfiles/git-src/xf86-video-radeonhd" (usually ".git" or "/path/to/.git") * PWD="/var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/xf86-video-radeonhd-9999/work/xf86-video-radeonhd-9999" * srcdir=".." * working_dir="/var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/xf86-video-radeonhd-9999/work/xf86-video-radeonhd-9999/src" */ /* No git repo found, probably building from dist tarball */ [/code] Anyway, as long as xorg doesn't rely on what src/git_version.h returns it doesn't harm anyone. The git "eclass" which gentoo ebuild relies, does just not fit the /path/to/.git logic .
