Henk, I installed the SuSE-RPMs without problems. I followed the instructions given in the SuSE README file. I have no idea where your errors come from. Sorry :( Uwe

Hallo Uwe, Did you install the SuSE version fglrx-3.9.0-2.1.i586.rpm and km_fglrx-3.9.0-2.1.i586.rpm? The other way is by installing http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/fglrx-4.3.0-3.9.0.i386.rpm.

I did the first thing, but messages reports some errors: "fglrx: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted". "[fglrx: fglrx_unlock] *ERROR* Process #### using kernel context 0" has someone suggestions where to look after? Henk

Hi,

I just managed to install the ATI 3.9.0 drivers. After rebooting the pc and running fglrxinfo I get the following output:

display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.4 Mesa 5.0.2)

That's not what I would expect. The XFree86.0.log shows the following messages: ...

Next, I changed the following line in XF86Config from

Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "no"

to

Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "yes"

Now, after rebooting the XFree86.0.log shows: ... (II) fglrx(0): doing DRIScreenInit drmOpenDevice: minor is 0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (Unknown error 999) drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (Unknown error 999) drmOpenDevice: Open failed drmOpenDevice: minor is 0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (Unknown error 999) drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (Unknown error 999) drmOpenDevice: Open failed drmOpenDevice: minor is 0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 5, (OK) drmGetBusid returned '' (II) fglrx(0): [drm] loaded kernel module for "fglrx" driver (II) fglrx(0): [drm] created "fglrx" driver at busid "PCI:1:0:0" (II) fglrx(0): [drm] added 8192 byte SAREA at 0xe2948000 (II) fglrx(0): [drm] mapped SAREA 0xe2948000 to 0x402bc000 (II) fglrx(0): [drm] framebuffer handle = 0xd8000000 (II) fglrx(0): [drm] added 1 reserved context for kernel (II) fglrx(0): DRIScreenInit done (II) fglrx(0): Kernel Module Version Information: (II) fglrx(0): Name: fglrx (II) fglrx(0): Version: 3.9.0 (II) fglrx(0): Date: May 11 2004 (II) fglrx(0): Desc: ATI Fire GL DRM kernel module (II) fglrx(0): Kernel Module version matches driver.

If I restart the X server now (without reboot!) the fglrxinfo output changes to:

display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. OpenGL renderer string: RADEON 9600 TX Generic OpenGL version string: 1.3 (X4.3.0-3.9.0)

and 3D acceleration works just fine.

The XFree86.0.log now shows: ...

Any ideas what might be wrong here?
