DRI Problems with XFree 4.2.1 and ATI Mobility Radeon LY
Greetings fellow laptop users!
I recently installed Debian Woody (stable/testing/unstable)
w/linux 2.4.18 kernel on my new (to me) IBM Thinkpad A30p.
This laptop has an ATI Mobility Radeon LY 32M AGP graphics card.
I installed all of the necessary DRI and DRM stuff,
and it's enabled in my XF86Config-4, but I'm still
having mucho troublo getting Direct Rendering to
work.
So... I (using tcsh) 'setenv LIBGL_DEBUG verbose'
and ran glxinfo and this is what I got:
----- begin glxinfo output -----

----- end glxinfo output -----
Any ideas? It appears to me that radeon_dri.so is
not loading properly (because it appears twice!)
and I'm wondering if this is because the radeon
module doesn't match the Xfree version?
----- begin version stuff -----
libGL: XF86DRIGetClientDriverName: 4.0.1 radeon
XFree86 Version 4.2.1.1 (Debian 4.2.1-6 20030225230350 branden@progeny.com) / X Window System
----- end version stuff -----
I get NO ERRORS (EE) in my /var/log/XFree86.0.log.
DRI seems to initialize fine:
----- begin Xfree86.0.log stuff -----
(II) Loading extension XFree86-DRI
(II) RADEON(0): [DRI] installation complete
[20:26]jesse@trevarthan:[/var/log]% grep DRM XFree86.0.log
(II) RADEON(0): [drm] installed DRM signal handler
[20:26]jesse@trevarthan:[/var/log]%
----- end Xfree86.0.log stuff -----
Any help appreciated!
