Fedora Hardware :: 3D Acceleration Of Radeon 4670 Does Not Work
Jan 20, 2011
The 3D acceleration of my Radeon 4670 doesn't work and I want to fix it. I have installed the drivers like in the sticky explained and also tried it one time with disabled AIXGL and Composite. I use Fedora 13.
Here are my "xorg.conf", the "LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo" and my "Xorg.log"
xorg.conf:
# Xorg configuration created by livna-config-display
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "single head configuration"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection .....
Xorg.log:
But it seems like it can't be opened...
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.

Whenever I try going into "Desktop effects" it says:
Accelerated 3D graphics is not available
Desktop effects require hardware 3D support.
I'm guessing this is a driver issue? I tried installing a driver for it, I think it was Catalyst but it didn't really work.

I tried this: [URL] to install my Radeon HD 4670's graphical drivers but it actually didn't work. I rebooted my computer and it says that the driver is not found and it makes the OS run on low graphics mode. I'm pretty new at Linux and running Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx. I'd like to know either how I could make my thing use the default driver for my card (with which I was able to put the extra visual effects...) or how could I install the thing properly...

I just updated my box to 11.3. And now when it starts, it goes to runlevel 3 which means the X server is not working. I'm using Radeon HD 4670. How do I configure X from runlevel 3?

I want to get Debian stable working on an iMac 11,2 (previous model):
1/ Same problem as this one, but I solved it by installing the fglrx-driver
2/ New problem: magic mouse and wireless keyboard don't work - solution: install .38-kernel from backports
3/ New problem: fglrx for .38 requires linux-headers.38 requires linux-kbuild.38...
So again stuck with the vesa-driver. I'm quite happy with the wireless mouse and keyboard working, so I'd rather stay with linux-image.38.
Two possibilities:
1/ I get the radeon-driver working
2/ I get the fglrx-driver working
I'd prefer the first method, but as you can see in the log (infra), there's a version mismatch between the kernel and the radeon-module. Any ideas how to get around this?
Using the radeon-driver gives me the following EE's in xorg.0.log.old:
(EE) RADEON(0): [dri] RADEONDRIGetVersion failed because of a version mismatch.
(EE) RADEON(0): Acceleration initialization failed
(EE) RADEON(0): clock recovery failed
(EE) RADEON(0): channel eq failed
(EE) GLX error: Can not get required symbols.
The las error is also shown as the only error when I use the VESA-driver; so clearly that is not the problem. I have tried without an xorg.conf, and the following xorg.conf won't work either:
Section "Module"
Load "glx"
Load "dri"
EndSection .....
I also tried the radeonhd-driver, but that doesn't change anything.

I tried to install the driver using the easy and hard way, but unfortunately I couldn't install it. When the file manager opens up through terminal after I type in the command using super user mode, I select the downloaded file and it opens it up in kwrite.

I recently bought a HIS HD 4670 IceQ card but can't get it to work in openSUSE 11.2 Under Windows the card works fine, so I assume there is no hardware problem. I tried this card in two computers with different mainboards, but it does not work. Several times I reinstalled openSUSE completely from scratch (tried both 32bit and 64bit versions) but no luck. The problem: Right after the installation it uses the radeonhd driver. This basically works, but without 3D (no Tuxracer...) and even 2D is slow (dragging around windows on the desktop is slow, page scrolling in firefox also).
Then I tried to install the ati proprietary driver, both from rpm (the rpm's from the "official" ati repository have a checksum error, as already mentioned in another thread!), and by downloading the driver from AMD and running the install script. The install script seems to work successfully. The kernel module is compiled and loaded. "aticonfig --initial" makes a rudimentary xorg.conf. But then, when starting X, it does not work:
- on one of the 2 tested systems, even kdm does not start, the screen simply stays black with a frozen cursor top left, even CTRL+ALT+backspace doesn't do anything - on the other system, kdm starts and shows the login screen, but when trying to start KDE kwin crashes, and the windows have no title bar (when I googled for this symptome I found lots of people also having this problem...) - trying to configure the system using sax2 didn't help, even sax2 doesn't display properly I have now spent 4 days trying to get this to work and now I'm really tired of those buggy graphics drivers, be it proprietary or open source...
Can anyone recommend me a graphics card that is approximately as powerful as the radeon 4670 (I bought this card because it is said to be the most economical card (both in price and energy consumption) that allows to play Anno 1404 reasonably well on windows), but is known to work in openSUSE 11.2, even in 3D mode (tuxracer...)?

I bought this Radeon 4670 [URL] to improve my video. Although the description on ATI-AMD webpage [URL] specifies that this card can output up to 7.1 audio through HDMI, Sound Controls only shows the stereo and off option. ATI Catalyst does not have any controls for audio. Is there a way to get 5.1 audio enabled? Using 10.04.

My system config is in my sig.I want to know if I have hardware acceleration using radeon open source driver.I did substantial searching on the internet and have come across this post:ATI Hardware Acceleration - XBMC Community Forum
I am doing all this because I have read on the internet that the open source radeon driver does not enable H/w acceleration properly which means that choppy performance while playing HD movies and / or while playing OpenGL games. Not that OpenGL games don't work, they just work very slowly even with Direct Rendering of Mesa drivers. Then there's this thing about Kernel Mode Setting as well which isn't available in the proprietary ATI driver.

Is there a trick to getting hardware acceleration to work? I've got the latest packages installed via yum, but hardware acceleration still seems to be off, or not working at least. glxgears is reporting ~300fps, which from my experience indicates that the cpu is doing the work. Here is relevant info:lspci
Code:
[root@Lappy ~]# lspci | grep "Graphics"
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
xorg.conf

I was looking at purchasing a radeon x1300 for a multimedia pc for my lounge and was wondering if anyone knew whether hardware video acceleration with this card was supported with ubuntu? I read that on the ati website that it does support mpeg2,4, etc video acceleration,but didn't know if this was so for ubuntu. I have a few bluray quality movies that I would be interested in playing, so hardware video acceleration is a must.

I recently installed Debian Jessie on my computer with M2A-VM motherboard and Radeon X1250 graphics card. The problem I am having is some games are running extremely slow, Torc and Mame64. I ran glxgears and it displayed gears running nicely. I ran glxinfo and it said direct rendering yes. It also displayed a lot of lined ending with none or slow. How I can make the graphics card run faster?

I have a Dell 1737 laptop with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650. I have the ATI fglrx drivers installed.
All OK.... BUT
I have no hardware graphics acceleration to any application.
glxgears consumes 29% of the CPU to run.desktop compositing consumes 0-50% CPU depending on activity.
running opensuse 11.2 up to date...

It has ATI Radeon HD 3000 Graphics. Will that work with Fedora 14? Will I need to install a driver to get it to work? If so, where would I download that driver?

I've loaded Fedora and must say what a nice OS! But I'm having some issues getting the video working correctly so let me jump right into the issue. The video is very garbled and hard to read. can't seem to find a way to correct what would appear to be a driver issue. Here are a list of things tried:
- display works fine with Ubuntu
- display is clear but is chopped off when using an external monitor from onboard vga slot
The video card is an ATI radeon and the linux drivers from the ATI site don't work with the new images that are out yet.

I have ATI graphic card with HDMI video and Audio:
I see that I have HDMI connector and S/PDIF connector on the mortherboard, I just have HDMI connector on the monitor, I have no problem with the video but the audio does not work, I just want to confirm that the audio should also go throught the HDMI cable right ?
Here is the output from the alsa-info.sh script.

For some reason after updating, somewhere my system is messed up where my 3d acceleration doesn't work. I found a workaround though, I can get it to work when I reboot, and manually select my OS at the grub2 menu by pressing enter. It doesn't work all the time this way, but most the time it does allow 3d acceleration to work almost normal. If I let the grub2 timer count down to auto select it will never be 3d accelerated, and prompts me it's going to run in low-graphics mode and I'm given an option to Restart X. Ok that's one part of it...
Now with my workaround say I got 3d acceleration to work, when I go to System > Preferences > Appearance : and for Visual Effects I select "Normal" (was on none). It will apply fine, until I reboot it gets set back to none. So I'm having to manually put everything back (graphics) every time I boot, this is a horrible bug. Then onto another aspect of this wonderful update. All my letters and numbers on the keyboard are normal, except when I use control and ALT, they don't seem to be mapped correctly because I can't use any of my Keyboard Shortcuts.

I replaced an ATI Radeon 9550 with a Radeon X1300/X1550, in hopes of better performance.
My System: P4@3GHz, 1.5Gb RAM, Fedora 12, kernel 2.6.32.10-90.fc12.
Faults: Screen refresh is extremely low. Glxgears outputs 25 FPS. Dragging windows around is sometimes really slow.
What I did so far, in hope of fixing it:
1. Installed 'system-config-display', for providing an xorg.conf
2. Did: yum --enablerepo=rawhide update mesa-dri-drivers-experimental mesa*, fixing this, but to no avail...
I cannot find any errors in the log...I don't know what to do...
I am posting my Xorg.conf, Xorg.0.log and Glxinfo through links to pastebin.com
POST UPDATE:
When running GlxGears, I get a bit of motion, and then the gears freeze for 1 second. And this goes on and on. But...if I move the mouse around, I get 1100FPS!
Now I messed a bit with xorg.conf and the "SWCursor" Option, but the above happens when this option is on "true". On "false" there is no 1100FPS, only the freezing loop...

While installing XBMC, which was working with my standard Ubuntu install, I accidentally installed NVidia hardware acceleration (sudo apt-get install libvdpau1 nvidia-185-libvdpau) on a notebook with ATI video.
Now XBMC does not work and says it requires OpenGL. apt-get remove does not work for that package because it's transitional. how I can get my stuff working like it was?

I have a ATI Technologies Inc RV530 [Radeon X1600] Card which used to work fine under Squeeze until some weeks ago, after an update in didn't anymore and since I wanted to install to Lenny anyway and did a clean install of Lenny and now the card hardware acceleration doens't work. I followed url.
Since I am using a backports kernel I installed firmware-linux-nonfree from lenny-backports.

I've been having problems getting my Ubuntu to work with ATI Radeon 6850. I've had Kubuntu for some time now, and it worked fine on my old card (nVidia 9400 GT). When I changed cards, the boot screen didn't display correctly, and after that I just got a black screen that wasn't responding to anything. I tried reinstalling the whole OS, but even the installation's GUI wouldn't load up.
Next I tired regular Ubuntu. The installation went fine, but the graphic settings were low, as you would expect from a system with no graphics driver. I installed the driver the system automatically suggests but after installing and rebooting I ran into the exact same problem I did with Kubuntu - black screen, no response. I got the notion that this card isn't fully supported yet, but I read other posts saying people got much further with this card then I did. Is there another driver I should be installing?

I don't know what to do. When I install ATI Catalyst, choosing it gives me an error message, and when I activate proprietary drivers, my screen becomes a glitched mess. How do I make Ubuntu 10.10 work with my ATI Radeon HD 6850?

After upgrade to Lynx, all of my ATI drivers don't work. Whenever I try to run fglrxinfo I get " Segmentation fault " And for fgl_glxgears I get" Using GLX_SGIX_pbuffer Segmentation fault " For sudo aticonfig --initial -f " Uninitialised file found, configuring.
Using /etc/X11/xorg.conf Saved back-up to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.fglrx-11 " Compiz does not work at all either.

I have an ATI radeon x1300 graphics card on my Toshiba Satellite A100 P542 laptop. I am new to ubuntu. On installation, I was pleased with the mac feel as I use mac at my home. I just cant get the card to work. In the hardware options, my card isn't displayed in proprietary thingy.
I later realised that my graphic driver is no longer supported by ATI and there are no official drivers. So I tried all the alternatives available in Ubuntu software centre. I currently have everything related to ATI, fglrx, xorg etc installed. But seems like all these things are of no use, as my graphics driver still isn't recognized and I cant use Compiz fusion. Leave alone compiz fusion I cannot run good quality videos. The screen gets sluggish when I do that.

I am installing the Nvidia proprietary module to get 3D acceleration. The system boots into gnome (fedora 11) nicely. When I go to console init 3 (shutdown X) to install the Nvidia native driver the console is all garbled. the monitor is fully polluted with random alphanumeric characters, different colors, quite pretty actually but cannot get out of it.. The fedora driver is nouveau. GPU is GeForce 8500. I get the same from a fedora dist. (2.6.30-10-105.2.23.fc11.i586) and linux distrbution (2.6.32.13)

When I was 12 fedora with graphics acceleration worked well and without problems but now I installed fedora 13 dvd compatible with everything when I installed it and no problem only in go to System> Preferences> Desktop Effects I came with a message.
Code:
3D graphics acceleration not available. Desktop effects require hardware support for 3D. I was surprised what I came out.
And try to end with the console
Code:
But most disappointing is that I do not use Nvidia, ATi, Intel only: / will get more info put this command and I miss it.

Been happily be using FC12 for roughly 6 months.
I installed 2 image browser apps to view all my Photos.
After I rebooted the GDM login screen hung, unable to login to X.
So I changed runtime level 3.
The ATi driver that came with FC12 worked fine and the driver from AMD do not support my kernel. I don't do system updates.
Anyway to restore the original driver that was provided with the FC12 disc? Possibly corrupt.
