Corrupt 3D display with SuSE 8.2 and Radeon 9600 Pro
by Ingo Strauch 18 Jan '04

18 Jan '04

Hi all! I have problems with my Sapphire Atlantis Radeon 9600 Pro graphics board. I have installed the glx1_linux_X4.3.zip package from http://www.schneider-digital.de/html/body_download_ati.html and got 2D working fine with the fglrx module. Unfortunately 3D (after switch2xf86_glx) produces broken output. The upper half of the screen or window is fine, but the lower is either completely black (glxgears) or shows only the background (the mountain range in tuxracer, but not tux and the course itself). With mesa everything looks fine, but it's of course no real long time option. The X packages I have installed (did the SuSE YOU after initial install) are these: XFree86-4.3.0-15 XFree86-GLX-4.3.0-15 XFree86-devel-4.3.0-15 XFree86-fonts-75dpi-4.3.0-15 XFree86-fonts-scalable-4.3.0-15 XFree86-libs-4.3.0-42 XFree86-man-4.3.0-15 XFree86-server-4.3.0-63 The important parts of my XF86Config are here: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Section "dri" Mode 0666 EndSection Section "Module" Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension SubSection "extmod" Option "omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension EndSubSection Load "type1" Load "freetype" Load "glx" # libglx.a Load "dri" # libdri.a EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" HorizSync 31.5 - 91.1 VertRefresh 60 - 85 Option "DPMS" EndSection # === ATI device section === Section "Device" Identifier "ATI Graphics Adapter" Driver "fglrx" # === disable PnP Monitor === #Option "NoDDC" # === disable/enable XAA/DRI === Option "no_accel" "no" Option "no_dri" "no" # === FireGL DDX driver module specific settings === # === Screen Management === Option "DesktopSetup" "0x00000000" Option "MonitorLayout" "AUTO, AUTO" Option "IgnoreEDID" "off" Option "HSync2" "unspecified" Option "VRefresh2" "unspecified" Option "ScreenOverlap" "0" Option "GammaCorrectionI" "0x00000000" Option "GammaCorrectionII" "0x00000000" # === OpenGL specific profiles/settings === Option "Capabilities" "0x00000000" # === Video Overlay for the Xv extension === Option "VideoOverlay" "on" # === OpenGL Overlay === # Note: When OpenGL Overlay is enabled, Video Overlay # will be disabled automatically Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off" # === Misc Options === Option "UseFastTLS" "0" Option "BlockSignalsOnLock" "on" Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "yes" Option "ForceGenericCPU" "no" BusID "PCI:1:0:0" # vendor=1002, device=4150 Screen 0 EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "ATI Graphics Adapter" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 #Option "backingstore" Subsection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" ViewPort 0 0 # initial origin if mode is smaller than desktop # Virtual 1280 1024 EndSubsection EndSection Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Server Layout" Screen "Screen0" InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Anybody similar problems/experiences or ideas what to try next?

SuSE 9 : can't get my monitor to work
by Nicolas Gendron 24 Nov '03

24 Nov '03

Hi all, I've got SuSE 9 and want to set up my monitor on it. I have a SCEPTRE D50X 15 inch and the companie doesn't provides linux driver. I was on RedHat 9 and had the same problem. With this distribution, I use the 'Generic svga' driver that comes with it. But, in SuSE 9, I don't see a generic driver. How can I solve this problem ??? Could it be the color resolution ??? Thanks a lot, Nic ___________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? -- Une adresse @yahoo.fr gratuite et en français ! Yahoo! Mail : http://fr.mail.yahoo.com

XVideo with r128 slow
by Mathias Heier 20 Nov '03

20 Nov '03

Hi, XVideo on my System (SuSE 8.2, XFree86 4.3.0-111, KDE 3.1.4, ATI XPERT 2000) is very slow, for example with MPlayer or tvtime. The upgrade to build 111 should fix this, but it doesn't. Any ideas? Thanks, Mathias

Intel DRI drivers
by Chris TenHarmsel 18 Nov '03

18 Nov '03

Intel has previously released accelerated drivers for the I810 chipset which are basically from the DRI project (dri.sourceforge.net). I was able to install these, and newer ones from dri.sourceforge.net, successfully in Mandrake, but since switching to SuSE 9.0 I am unable to get any of them to work. Has SuSE packaged these? Or has anyone gotten these drivers to work on whatever version of X ships with SuSE 9.0 Pro? Thanks, Chris

by Roman.Hannesschlaeger＠tms-at.com 17 Nov '03

17 Nov '03

My monitor has never been on the list of monitor that you choose from when you configure X with SaX. How can I add it? At first I?d like to add it on my machine. The data could also be added to the project database as well. ROMAN. ______________________________________________________________________________ WEB.DE FreeMail wird 5 Jahre jung!
