Sorry for my ignorance, but how exactly do I unload a module? When I try modprobe -u fglrx, it tells me that my kernel does not support module unloading. Does this mean I have to recompile?

If you don't have module unloading support, then you can either recompile your kernel with it enabled as GlooM suggested, or you can simply reboot, which will have the same effect as unloading the old fglrx module and loading the new one.

*sigh* My ATI drivers now lock up Xorg about every 6-8 hours.. still thats intolerable for a *nix system. Back to the standard ati drivers and a _NON_ tainted kernel.. wahoo

PS. Hey, at least I can get my composite back :D

As soon as I updated to 2.6.11-rc4-nitro (from 2.6.11-rc3-nitro) I unmerged and then re-emerged ati-drivers. This time the 8.10 ATIs were installed. I rebooted, and life is good. This is reusing the SAME kernel config and the SAME xorg.conf. I've got 3D Acceleration and while I don't notice a major speed difference I feel a lot better about having the latest drivers. Not bad.

I had the same problem with that on a GeForce 4800 ti SE

It's the sound driver that ships with UT2004, I removed the ../System/Openal.so and linked it to the one Gentoo built and I have not had a stutter since. This is using emu10k1

gifu@tokyo ~ $ glxgears
18807 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3761.400 FPS
20675 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4135.000 FPS
20679 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4135.800 FPS
20678 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4135.600 FPS
26718 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5343.600 FPS
27437 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5487.400 FPS
27997 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5599.400 FPS

(No complaints what so ever ... great work!) <-- said too soon

kdm.log says:
(WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:1) found
(EE) fglrx(0): incompatible kernel module detected - HW accelerated OpenGL will not work

and Enemy Territory stopped working ?

edit 2: Thank you wedge, I upgraded to 2.6.10 kernel and re-emerged ati-drivers and now everything is working again as it should.

This usually means you still have the old fglrx module loaded, or the module you have is compiled for a differently configured kernel. A reboot should fix things. Alternatively, you can exit from X, unload the old module and load the new one ("rmmod fglrx && modprobe fglrx") then start X again, which is all you need to do if it's just using the old module.

Wow thanks! I'll try it asap, if the stuttering on large maps goes away I'll be the happiest person in the world. Strange that I didn't have it on my old geforce 3,

Correction, it wasn't the openal.so that fixed it (just double checked and I'm using the one shipped with the game)

It was a kernel scheduling problem with 2.6.8.1 I believe. I can't rememer where that was I found it but (a) solution was to install the 2.6.10-ck kernel as it has the scheduling patches

THAT is what took care of my stutter problem, NOT openal.so, so sorry for the confusion

Folks, please, for your own sake, do not use glxgears as a benchmark. It has been well established that glxgears is useless in this capacity other than to indicate hardware acceleration is working (e.g., 125fps versus something more than 300).

You will get substantially better indication out of quake3-demo or unreal tournament if you are looking for a reproducible benchmark source.

And to that, I will post my ut2004 benchmarks...

ver 8.8.25
21.116665 / 58.265640 / 130.891083 fps -- Score = 56.764095 rand[1361546983]
ver 8.10.19
25.370060 / 60.312614 / 137.913422 fps -- Score = 58.489479 rand[1600487016]


So a decent improvement 8)

I was browsing through my log file and noticed some odd things, check out these snippets:
Code:
X Window System Version 6.8.2
Release Date: 9 February 2005
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.8.2
Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.10-gentoo-r6 x86_64 [ELF]
Current Operating System: Linux amorbis 2.6.10-gentoo-r6 #3 Mon Jan 24 02:18:47 CST 2005 x86_64

(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.o
(II) Module fglrx: vendor="FireGL - ATI Technologies Inc."
        compiled for 4.3.99.902, module version = 8.10.19
        Module class: X.Org Video Driver
        ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 0.7
...
(WW) fglrx(0): Cannot read colourmap from VGA.  Will restore with default
(II) fglrx(0): UMM area:     0xe0701000 (size=0x078ff000)
(II) fglrx(0): driver needs XFree86 version: 4.3.x
(WW) fglrx(0): could not detect XFree86 version (query_status=-3)


I double check the ebuild and it is downloading the version for xorg 6.8. Why is the driver compiled for 4.3.99.902?

Can someone using 8.8.25 look at their log and see if this was the case with that version too?

Hi,

I encounter the nasty stutter :( in UT2004 as well, and i haven't found a solution yet. I read your comment and installed the nitro-sources (which include the CK patches) but to no avail.. still the UT2004 stutter. FYI, i replaced the openal.so en libSDL.so with links to the system ones.

Other games (Doom3) work fine, my system is a P4 3000, 9800PRO card, kernel26-headers (2.6.8.1) nptl...

It's normal to see these messages, and I think ATI are intending to fix them at some point, although they don't appear to be critical.

PostPosted: Sun Feb 20, 2005 2:52 pm    Post subject: Followup - ATI NOW STABLE! Reply with quote

I'd like to follow up to my earlier post in which I dispaired of getting the current ATI drivers (8.10.19) to behave with the current xorg-x11 (Ver. 6.8.2).

My system is now stable! I just left celestia running all night (tracking IO) with an opengl screensaver running as well (atunnel, from the xscreensaver suite), and the system is still up and running just fine.

What I did.

Originally I had recompiled xorg-x11-6.8.2, recompiled ati-drivers-8.10.19, and rebooted. The system was still unstable...indeed, 5 minutes of celestia would freeze the box solid, requiring a hard reset.

I tried the nitro kernel out, but though the kernel itself worked, the ati-drivers had all kinds of unresolved symbols and 3d acceleration was b0rked. I then reverted to the gentoo-dev-2.6.10-r7 sources, recompiling the kernel, recompiling the ati-drivers against the newly recompiled 2.6.10-r7 kernel, and rebooting.

Since then the system has been rock solid.

I am not sure which step was the final fix that made things better, but for those having stability problems I suggest:

1. recompile xorg
2. recompile your kernel from scratch (backup your /usr/src/linux/.config file, run make mrproper, copy the backup .config back into /usr/src/linux, and recompile, i.e. make bzImage modules modules_install and install the new bzImage).
3. recompile the ati-drivers
4. reboot.

One or more of these steps cleared up the problem for me. Good work ATI folks! The new drivers work beautifully.

o_O i sEe dEaD pEOplE....... No, really, thanks anyway. I'll try linking openal.so to the system's one anyway, things can't go worse. As for the scheduler thing, no, that ain't it.

Iv merged a 2.6.11-rc4 vanilla and then emerge ati-drivers. Whats the important kernel option for the ati-driver?
Here is the result of emerge ati-drivers:
Code:

 * Found kernel source directory:
 *     /usr/src/linux
 * Found sources for kernel version:
 *     2.6.11-rc4

Kernel conf(important parts):

#Character devices

 <M> /dev/agpgart (AGP Support)
 <M>   ATI chipset support             
 <M>   Intel 440LX/BX/GX, I8xx and E7x05 chipset support

Can anybody find the problem?
PS: is it possible to use softwaresuspend(2) under this kernel with the new ati driver?

Sorry for my poor english ;)

Don't use Direct Rendering Manager and ATI Radeon modules with these drivers.

you need use -l argument to patch this file, and skip fglrx-2.6-pagetable.patch.
or modify the ebuild this way:
save the patch to a file, in my case ati_2.6.11rc4.patch.
comment line 49 of the ebuild, then add a new patch line
Code:

    if kernel_is 2 6
    then
#       epatch ${FILESDIR}/fglrx-2.6-pagetable.patch
        patch -p0 -l < ${FILESDIR}/ati_2.6.11rc4.patch
    fi


Of course put the ebuild and files in your PORTDIR_OVERLAY.
good luck.

* XVideo support now available in dualhead configuration

Before:

I added VideoOverlay "on" under my second monitior (Dual Head conf.)
xvinfo reported xvideo on both my dispalys, and it worked fine

Now (newest drivers):

xvinfo only reports xvideo no my primary screen, my CRT... argh argh
Tried to add/remove VideoOveraly "on", no difference.. :/

Anyone?


Same crap for me! They fixed my working dual-head so it won't work anymore.

before I could watch video on both screens, however when watching tv I got an artifact on my lcd, as in I got a thin portion of the screen which was green and moving. as in some corrupt version of the video, and if something moved over it. like if i moved the mouse over it, or the clock was behind it I would get purple stuff on my tv however if I mvoed the taskbar if it was below, and didn't have anything animated in the way it would work perfectly.
