This is RedHat Enterprise edition.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Radeon X1300 Hardware Video Acceleration Under ?

Jun 7, 2011

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.

Fedora Hardware :: Replacing Radeon 9550 With Radeon X1300/X1550 - Low FPS

Apr 4, 2010

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...

Ubuntu Multimedia :: ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 Does Not Work With 10.04?

May 23, 2010

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.

Ubuntu :: Broken Boot Sequence After Replacing An NVidia 6600GT With A Radeon X1300

Apr 27, 2011

Yesterday, after my nVidia 6600GT left its last breath I had to revive somehow my Ubuntu box. So I used the next available card I had at my disposal, a Radeon X1300/1550 (RV516).What I have done so far:

1. Using 2.6.35-48 generic (recovery) bootup, I managed to fire up the failsafeX.

2. I used this guide to purge Nvidia leftovers.

3. I used this RadeonDriver guide to install the OpenSource Radeon driver.

When I try to boot using the normal choice on GRUB (kernel2.6.35-28-generic) , all I get is a console (no X).Right now I am running X through Recovery boot, and my lsmod shows this:

Code:

Hardware :: Configure Radeon Video Card ?

Dec 15, 2010

I have installed a 9200 Radeon (the card says 9250 on it, but computer reads as 9200) on a AMD Sempron 2500+ 64 bit,Ubuntu 10.04 Gnome 2.30.2, Kernel Linux 2.6.32-26; Samsung VGA 941BW monitor.

A friend told me if I added more RAM (512mb), the card would run properly & the graphics would be stellar.

He also told me the drivers were installed.

When I did this & started the computer, before I got to my login, a box appeared, telling me my graphics were running in "Low Mode", & do I want to configure them. When I said "Yes", it told me to restart. When I did, nothing happened & the video card is still running on "low". I checked the fglrx info, and was told "command not found".

Hardware :: 3-monitors Using ATI Radeon 2600 Video Card?

Jan 19, 2010

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 on an HP Desktop with an ATI Radeon 2600 pci card that has four outputs. I want to run the same 3-monitor array that I had in windows. Is it possible to get this thing running and configured right in Linux? At the moment I can only get it to send a signal to 2 monitors. I installed the drivers step by step from the manufacturer, but I can't seem to get a signal to all 3 monitors.

Debian Hardware :: Power Mac G5 And Radeon X1900 Video Card

Aug 27, 2011

I'm attempting to get Debian (Squeeze, latest net-install CD) working on a Power Mac G5 Quad with a Radeon X1900 Mac edition video card (PCI-Express.) The installer acted a bit weird right from the start, telling me that the step "Install the system" failed (with nothing in the way of useful error information,) but I got the base system installed at least. It booted fine to framebuffer console, so I set about installing GNOME on it. apt finished with nary a complaint, but when I rebooted, I found that when it's ready to launch into X, it chokes up and just sits there with a blank screen and a cursor. (Weirdly, though, the screen itself flickers on and off at a high rate, faster than the actual cursor blink.)

Framebuffer console still works, at least, so I was able to boot into single-user mode and do some investigating in my own limited capacity for this stuff (by which I mean "Google error messages and see what specifics are requested.") lspci -k shows the video card properly with the manufacturer and product name, so it is recognizing it, at least. When I try Xorg -configure, though (Xorg 1.7.7, it says,) it aborts with a "No DRICreatePCIBusID symbol" message. Checking dmesg gives me a "process Xorg mapped non-existing PCI legacy memory" message, followed by an "invalid ROM contents" message underneath.

I'm not sure what all to make of this. I've found a thread about problems getting the same basic setup (G5 Quad, X1900, Debian) to work, but it's a couple years old and the symptoms are different. There's some discussion there about the radeon/radeonhd driver looking for Atom BIOS information on non-Atom BIOS cards, which would explain the "invalid ROM contents" message, but on the other hand, if lspci recognizes the card properly, would that be the problem? I don't know. Obviously it's playing nicely enough to run framebuffer console output properly, but beyond that I have no idea. I'd really like to get this working - it'd really improve things over the GeForce 6600 it came with...

Fedora Installation :: The Video Card Is An ATI Radeon And The Drivers From The ATI Site Don't Work

Aug 10, 2009

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.

Ubuntu :: Configuring ATI Radeon HD 5450

Jul 12, 2010

Just purchased and installed an ATI Radeon HD 5450 graphics card and installed the proprietary drivers via System > Administration > Hardware Drivers. After rebooting the machine X would not load so I restarted into recovery and removed my xorg.conf. At this point I could restart normally and the machine would let me into X. I went to System > Preferences > ATI Catalyst Control Center to try and configure the card.

I receive the following message:
There was a problem initializing Catalyst Control Center Linux edition. It could be caused by the following. No ATI graphics driver is installed, or the ATI Driver is not functioning properly. Please install the ATI driver appropriate for your ATI hardware, or configure using aticonfig.

So, I did just that, I restored my backup xorg.conf (configured for nvidia card) and executed 'sudo aticonfig --initial', it made the proper changes and additions to the configuration file and this is what it looks like [view xorg.conf]. I then restarted the machine and X still refuses to begin [view Xorg.0.log]. Again, I went in removed the xorg.conf file and the machine will load normally. I tried running fglrxinfo to try and see if the card was properly installed and it just threw a segmentation fault.

Software :: GUI Tool For Configuring Open Source Radeon Drivers

Sep 4, 2010

Last year I had a gui tool for configuring the radeon open source drivers in my old slackware install but now I forgot the name of it. I'm pretty sure it was gtk based and no matter what I type in google I can't seem to find any reference to it. There is a radeontool but that's not it. Anyone know what the name for it was, or something else that provides easy configuring of the open source radeon drivers? I remember it had lots of options to configure including some I've never heard of. Thought it'd be easy to find now since it seemed so officially supported during the time I used it!

Hardware :: Driver For ATI Radeon Integrated Video?

May 17, 2010

Fedora 12, latest kernel, x86_64.

I have an Asus M4A78L-M motherboard that has integrated ATI Radeon HD3000 video. Should I be looking for a driver specific to the integrated video, or should I be looking for a driver specific to the motherboard? I'm not sure if I should look for something different if the video is integrated onto the motherboard, as opposed to a separate video card. This is what I found: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownloa...5&lang=English

Are there best practices for updating video drivers before I make any changes? I don't want to hose my video.

Hardware :: High-resolution Video With 2 MB Graphics Card- Play 480p Video ?

Jun 24, 2010

I've been playing around with Damn Small Linux 4.4.10 on my Dell Inspiron 3000 laptop for quite a while now, and this is the first time I've been downright stumped. To make a long story short, I'm trying to play 480p video on a machine with a 233 MHz Pentium processor, 112 MB of ram, and a Neomagic MagicGraph 128XD graphics card (NM2160). Crazy? Maybe, but I don't think so. I'm using MPlayer set to Xv mode with the XFree86 4.3.0 server, and so far, I've been able to get it to play 360p mpegs with minimal stuttering. However, MPlayer crashes with 480p. This is because the 128XD only has 2 MB of memory, which, after the 1024x768x16 screen takes its share, doesn't leave enough room for a 640x480 overlay.

The creators of MPlayer are aware of this limitation, and suggest adding the following line to my XF86Config file: Option "OverlayMem" "829440"

As I understand it, this is supposed to extend the video card's frame buffer into system memory, thus allowing the higher resolution video to play. However, it doesn't work, based on this output from my XFree86 log file: cannot reserve 829440 bytes for overlay...

Some other suspicious-looking lines from the log file:

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Radeon Card Not Performing Well?

May 12, 2011

I have a Radeon HD 5830 card and it just doesn't seem to be working to it's full potential. I've tried TF2 and SC2 through the latest stable release of Wine, but the frame rates are horrible.

Also, when I run fgl_glxgears, I only get 800fps. (If I reboot the computer and run fgl_glxgears as soon as I log in, I get at least 3000fps for a few seconds. Then it's back to 800)

I've tried reinstalling the driver several times.

Why is the performance so low?

Here's my setup:
XFX Radeon 5830
Ubuntu 11.04 (fresh install and updated)
11.5 ATI driver from AMD's site. Here is fglrxinfo output:

Hardware :: Put A Radeon 8500DV Card In Slackware Box?

Aug 6, 2010

I decided to put a Radeon 8500DV card in my Slackware box. Works fine with the Vesa driver. Problem is, I'm using a widescreen monitor, and Vesa doesn't support my default resolution (1366x768). So I thought I'd do a little editing in my xorg.conf file and fix it right up.

I logged on as root, and did "X -configure", then I went in and edited the file it made me and put in the appropriate values for my monitor and resolution. And then it copied it over my xorg.conf file, and typed startx. Voila! Looked great, and I checked the settings to be sure I was in 1366x768. It worked fine!

Once.

Then I logged out and tried "startx" with my user account. As soon as I do, my monitor displays "No Signal"... weird - cause it just worked. So I rebooted, and logged on as root, and tried startx again. "No Signal"

So why would it work just once and not again. I tried repeating my steps exactly, and still can't get it to come up.

Here is the xorg.conf I used when it did work:

I tried removing the Card1 and Screen1 sections (since they are invalid), but that made no difference.
