Fedora Hardware :: RadeonHD 3D Support For R600 - Possible?

Jun 12, 2010

Since I can't get a screen size anywhere above 1280x800 on the "radeon" driver and the experimental mesa dri drivers - which I installed (7.8.1.6) have now disabled 3D on all ATI drivers(!) I'm scratching my head furiously trying to see if I can get 3D to work. I've taken a look at the X.Org experimental HOWTO but it says if I have everything I need I don't need to follow the steps and download from git. [URL]. If you have reasonably up to date radeonhd (1.3.0 or higher), kernel (2.6.32 or higher) and mesa (7.7 or higher)you shouldn't need to follow *any* of the instructions on this page. These obviously come with F13 by default.

Glxinfo output is right here, I'll post xorg.conf if anyone needs it:
bash-4.1$ glxinfo
name of display: :0.0
display: :0 screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.4
server glx extensions:
GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating,
GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap, GLX_OML_swap_method,
GLX_SGI_make_current_read, GLX_SGIS_multisample, GLX_SGIX_hyperpipe,
GLX_SGIX_swap_barrier, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, GLX_SGIX_pbuffer,
GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer, GLX_INTEL_swap_event
client glx vendor string: Mesa Project and SGI .....

Software :: Fedora 11 Lenovo Laptop Fglrx OR Radeonhd Discrete Graphics

Jul 10, 2009

I just put Fedora 11 on my Lenovo Thinkpad t400. I selected the integrated (lousy, but Intel (supported)) graphics device in the BIOS, but I really hate the lower performance than the discrete graphics device. However, this device requires fglrx or radeonhd for DRI. RPMFusion has not released an (a)kmod-fglrx, so I can't use that. I have heard radeonhd has some stability issues though, and I don't know how to install. I was wondering how I could completely change my graphics configuration (change chipsets in the BIOS) and get the X Server in Fedora 11 working with the new driver and chipset. Is it a good idea to use radeonhd, or should I wait for the fglrx?

Even then, how would I completely change my graphics configuration so it would work with a different card & driver? I don't want to do a fresh install because I've done a lot of work & customization with the F11.I don't know anything about radeonhd, so any information about this kind of thing would be useful.Finally, should I just suck it up and deal with the Intel graphics? Is anything of this sort really worth my time? (I'm willing to spend quite a bit, trust me!)

Slackware :: ATI R600: Videos Not Fast Enough

Feb 12, 2011

1. 32 bit Athlon w/1G & HD4650 AGP w/kernel 2.6.35.4 & some agp patch
2. Twin core turion 64 bit with rs690 & PCIE w/kernel 2.6.33�4 on slack64-13.1.

Each is using xf86-video-ati-6.13.0 & mesa-7.8.1, pixman-0.16.6, libdrm-2.4.20, & xorg-server-1.7.7, and libflashplayer 10.2 d151 or thereabouts. Neither will play a video properly on full screen - the mouths are badly out of sync with the speech, although otherwise we're ok. The athlon did play fine when it had some old nvidia card Should I go at newer oss stuff (sigh) and compile another round of packages, or should I go to proprietary drivers?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Previously Functional RV620 (R600) Radeon Card Can't Run Compiz Without Freezing?

May 13, 2011

I had Ubuntu 10.04 installed with great compositing performance on my Radeon HD 3450 card, and I installed Ubuntu 11.04 last night. I can't get into anything but Ubuntu Classic (No Effects) to actually use the computer. Whenever I log into Ubuntu Classic (w/ Effects), I can hear the start sound, the panels and some shadows show up, but immediately after they first render, I can't touch anything, shadows disappear wherever I click, and it freezes, forcing me to drop to a tty and kill X.

Whenever I try to start Unity, I hear the start sound, but never see anything but the wallpaper. Also, the screen will sometimes go black for a second or so before returning to the same frozen graphics available previously, and sometimes I can't even drop to a tty after it does this. From glxinfo, everything seems to be in order. Here is the relevant data.

Quote:
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on AMD RV620
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 7.10.2
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20

So far as I know, Unity should support OpenGL 1.5+ capable drivers/cards, and compiz should support even lower requirements. As I said, on the LTS release the drivers performed admirably well, far better than fglrx on the same card- much more fluid, no jerkiness. I can get Unity working with fglrx, but it's quite depressing to watch, and I don't plan on using it when I have an open card that should work well. I am aware that there were recent changes to the kernel to bring in the Gallium driver for R600 cards- I've read something about r600g and r600c and one of them being used in Ubuntu. I'm supposing the recent change is what's causing these issues, and I'm curious about how to change them back or correct whatever is causing these problems.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: No 2d Acceleration On Radeonhd Driver?

Dec 30, 2009

I have a AGP Radeon HD3650 RV635. I've tried using the ATI Catalyst 9.12 drivers, and they work ok with 2D/3D DECCELERATION. 3D works but it's extremely slow, maximizing a window takes 10secs, videos skip when played in fullscreen. Disabling Compiz doesn't help much, in 2D mode, windows redraw slowly.

I'm trying to install the open radeonhd drivers, and so far, it's booting into gnome, but it's barely usable. There is no 2D acceleration (log says ShadowFB only) and glxinfo reports:

Code:
name of display: :0.0
X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 135 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)

Debian Hardware :: Install Ati Cat. Driver To RadeonHD In Squueze?

Apr 5, 2011

I'm trying to install the Ati Catalyst 11.3 driver on a HD5000 series radeon graphics card, but it's fails. I installed earlier this driver on Ubuntu, Mint and last time in OpenSuse, so it's can't be an impossible task. In all case, the direct installation of the .run file is not an option, because it never workd on any distors. My way is to generate the fglrx package, then install the .deb file. But in Squueze, it's gave me a problem, something is missing from /usr/X11R6 directory (basicly there is no such directory anyway)

I installed the dpkg-dev and debhelper packages to solve some problems during the buildpkg, but after that i get these:

sh ati-driver-installer-11-3-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Debian/testing
Created directory fglrx-install.j35Qd7
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: 10.4 And Radeonhd Driver Slow Performances?

May 19, 2010

I have Dell Inspiron 6400 equipped with an ATI Radeon Mobility X1400 card and running Ubuntu 10.4. Before the upgrade from 9.10 to 10.4 I was using the "generic" xserver-xorg-video-radeon, which was working fine but after the upgraded did NOT allow me to work in Dual Screen mode.

I then saw that there is a xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd driver which targets, among all, my X1400 card. I installed it and the Dual Screen now indeed works but I notice that my system is slower (actually, it stresses a lot the CPU) when I do things like scrolling a page in the browser, reducing/restoring a window, etc.. so I'm wondering if it isn't a driver or configuration issue in Xorg.

My xorg.conf (regeranted from scratch by the Xorg -configure):

Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"

Software :: Mplayer Aspect Ratio Radeonhd Driver?

Jun 17, 2009

I am trying to get video output with mplayer on a 64 bit hp laptop running the radeonhd driver. I feel in need of a little config magic. It throws up a square box in the middle of the 1200x800 screen. My config file simply says:

xy-3:2
utf8=yes
dec@harriet:$ mplayer dvd://2 - The video bit says
MPEG-PS file format detected.
VIDEO: MPEG2 720x576 (aspect 3) 25.000 fps 9800.0 kbps (1225.0 kbyte/s)

[code].....

mplayer -vf spp, scale also gets laughed at. There is also some conflict because the agp aperature is over 4 gigs and the bios/kernel recreate one at 2 gigs. This is a lousy video combination (ATI card under linux - 'nuff said).

Ubuntu :: Lucid - Radeonhd: Cursor Invisible After Resume From Suspend

May 3, 2010

After resuming from suspend (press power button), display is correct except cursor is not displayed. Mouse responds and I am able to highlight widgets etc. on display and X responds to mouse-clicks correctly.Confirmed it was definitely Xorg-related (radeonhd):Logged out of GNOME then logged back in using 'xterm' desktop.ran pm-suspend(8).pressed power button and cursor was not displayed.Currently using the setting where I use the ctrl key to show the cursor position.

Server :: Driver Support - QME2572 - Qlogic - Card Became Support By The Kernel

Jul 10, 2011

I'm trying to find out when QME2572 (Qlogic) card became support by the kernel. We have a RHEL 5.1 system that is moving to new hardware, however the kernel at this release doesn't support the new hardware, due to the Qlogic card change. I tired the Redhat KB and Bugzilla. Is there a Kernel change list etc I can search. Never really played around with the kernel too much so I'm just after some pointers for looking up this information. Offically its not supported until Redhat 5.3, I'm trying trying to research kernel info so I can tell the customer they have to upgrade.

Debian :: EXFAT Support Vs NTFS Support ?

Aug 25, 2010

I'm looking to dual-boot Windows 7 and Debian 6 upon its release on my sister's laptop. I want to share a partition between the two of them so that /home points to this directory and the Windows equivalent also points to it (C:Users).

Anyway, I've heard good and bad things about the NTFSMount driver (I think it's NTFS-3G now) and the NTFSprogs project and so I am not so certain what I should believe. I do know that NTFS has relatively high overhead, though I do not recall the source of this assertion, so I am considering the use of EXFAT. An open source EXFAT project is hosted on Google Code at [url] and it utilizes the kernel module FUSE.

I'm quite certain that I've got everything covered on the Windows side -- that is, I know that both NTFS and EXFAT will be suitable filesystems for my required usage.

My issue is that I'm curious which will have superior performance and stability in Debian. I planned on building the package from source and mounting the device in my FSTAB but I have also found a PPA for Ubuntu on Launchpad at [url] that I could borrow the debian/rules from and make a .deb package from.

What do you guys think? Should I go at it with the EXFAT or NTFS partitioning? Is NTFS-3G actually fairly supported at this point? Or perhaps should I consider some alternate method?

I have also considered that the only files she will be sharing are those of music, videos, and pictures so it could be better to just link /home/xxxx/Pictures (Music and Videos, too) to the new partition instead of all of /home.

Fedora :: Mp3 Support In KDE?

Oct 1, 2009

I liked the feel that I got from KDE from my short experiment with Arch. So I decided to use KDE with Fedora, and I like the results.

The only problem I'm finding with it is that I can't find a way to get mp3s to play with KDE apps. I can get Banshee to play them with gstreamer. The problem is that no matter what method I use to get KDE apps to play the files (like Amarok), they won't work.

I've tried the following commands.

Code:
su -c 'yum -y install kdemultimedia-extras-nonfree id3v2'

Gives me an error saying that kdemultimedia-extras-nonfree doesn't exist.

Code:
su -c 'yum install xine-lib-extras-nonfree id3v2'

This installed perfectly, but mp3 playback still does not work.
