Re: Radeon 9000 If (RV250), Mac G4 (Wintunnel) problems with XFree86



Hi Michel,

My attempts at using the binary have failed.  X reports:

(II) LoadModule: "radeon"
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules-dri-trunk/drivers/radeon_drv.o
(II) Module radeon: vendor="The XFree86 Project"
        compiled for 4.3.99.5, module version = 4.0.1
        Module class: XFree86 Video Driver
        ABI class: XFree86 Video Driver, version 0.7
(EE) module ABI minor version (7) is newer than the server's version (6)
(II) UnloadModule: "radeon"
(II) Unloading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules-dri-trunk/drivers/radeon_drv.o
(EE) Failed to load module "radeon" (module requirement mismatch, 0)

I've tried and failed to build a new dri-trunk package incorporating the
patch (most likely a newbie deb package building/xfree86 compiling
problem).

My package versions are:
xserver-xfree86 4.2.1-6  the XFree86 X server
xserver-xfree86-dri-trunk 2003.05.04-1  The XFree86 X server [DRI trunk]

If this is due to your binary being compiled against a different version
of X than my own, what can I do?  Should I try it with a 4.3 server?
(and if so, are some official debs available?)  Could you compile it
against a lower version for me?  Or shall I just give up on this whilst
somebody else with more xfree86 smarts tests it? :(

Thanks,

John.
