Dear listmembers,
on my 128 MB ATI Radeon 9600XT the drivers work nice. In contrast, if I play
i. e. torcs on my second computer with either a 64 MB Radeon 8500 or a 64 MB
Radeon 9200 the cars consist of 4 wheels only, the car body is invisible, the
landscape is displayed only partially. I haven't found any related errors
in /var/log/messages or in the xorg-logfiles.
I googled around to find a reason - but in vain.
Anyone has an idea what to change to make this work / what could be the reason
for the behaviour?
Many thanks for your efforts,
take care
Dieter Jurzitza

Dear listmembers,
just to keep you informed - horray, ATI did something against the crashing of
their X-Servers during installation in case that more than 22 modelines.
8.22.5 can be set up (still using good old SuSE 9.3) using the recommended
commandline from README.suse (nearly).
The only remaining issue stems from the fact that the modelines that get
written into the xorg.conf file do not neccessarily comply with what your
monitor can do. I experienced monitor overload (lucky me, the monitor turned
itself off as the signal became out of range).
Therefore, still the same recommendation:
--> install using:
sax2 -x -m 0=fglrx -b /usr/share/doc/packages/fglrx/sax2-profile
(note -x rather than -r)
--> do not test after installation as the driver might push your monitor out
of acceptable clock rates (I am not sure whether all monitors are so kind to
just stop displaying rather than overdriving their output stages)
--> delete *all* modelines in /etc/X11/xorg.conf after installation.
This is how Section "Modes" should look like at the very end:
Section "Modes"
Identifier "Modes[0]"
EndSection
If there is something wrong with my recommendation - please let me know. I do
not know whether ATI gently ignores what is being written in the Monitor data
base of SuSE or whatsoever - maybe it is a problem of my Elsa ECOMO monitor
only, but please be aware that there is some kind of risk IMHO.
To whom it might concern,
take care

Hi,
I hope this is the right sport dumping this question. I'm receiving the
following compile error on building sax2. dbus-devel is installed and the
system is suse 10.0 i586:
make[4]: Entering directory `/home/pa/tmp-downloads/sax/sysp/lib/libhd/hd'
make[4]: *** No rule to make target `dbus/dbus.h', needed by `hal.o'. Stop.
make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/pa/tmp-downloads/sax/sysp/lib/libhd/hd'
hal.h has the following:
#include <dbus/dbus.h>
#include <hal/libhal.h>
Anyone, any ideas?
After installing Suse 9.3 at restart , the screen of my monitor is black color
stopped , the same installing Suse 10.0. My computer has an Ati X600 PCI -X
graphic card and think there are a disonance between the syncronisme of the
monitor and the card.I have probed all graphic modes at the restart of Suse,
but always the same thing happens.
Anybody has the answering to the problem?.Thanks.
