 Posted: Mon Oct 17, 2005 12:17 am Post subject: Need help setting up ATI for xorg - IBM x31 |
 |
|
I'm trying to properly set up my ATI Radeon Mobility M6. Right now, the best I can get in glxgears is about 250FPS (TOO SLOW!!!)
| Code: |
datlap ~ # lsmod
Module Size Used by
intel_agp 20252 1
agpgart 29704 1 intel_agp
wlan_wep 5760 1
ath_pci 53728 0
ath_rate_onoe 7112 1 ath_pci
ath_hal 146896 2 ath_pci
wlan 107740 4 wlan_wep,ath_pci,ath_rate_onoe
|
| Code: |
datlap ~ # modprobe fglrx
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.13-gentoo-r3/video/fglrx.ko): No such device
|
I've tried using the radeon module, but the framerates stay the same. I can't seem to get fglrx loaded. Not sure if it'll even make it any better. Anyone have any ideas??

I had already tried using http://dev.gentoo.org/~brix/papers/X31/X31.html earlier. My frame rates always seem to stay the same no matter what I do. I know the video card in here isn't the greatest, but I KNOW that the framerates should be higher.

In your glxinfo you see:
| Code: | | direct rendering: No |
which means no 3d accel.
Are you sure you followed exactly brix's guides ? If you are maybe you'd be better asking in #gentoo-laptop[/bug] |

Yup.. I saw that when I posted it. I just don't know how to fix it. I'm not sure which modules I'm not using that I need. I loaded up the ubuntu livecd, and checked that glxinfo (since the video performance was much better there), and I found this:
| Code: |
name of display: :0.0
display: :0 screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.2
server glx extensions:
GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating,
GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_OML_swap_method, GLX_SGI_make_current_read,
GLX_SGIS_multisample, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig
client glx vendor string: SGI
client glx version string: 1.4
client glx extensions:
GLX_ARB_get_proc_address, GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_import_context,
GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_MESA_allocate_memory,
GLX_MESA_swap_control, GLX_MESA_swap_frame_usage, GLX_OML_swap_method,
GLX_OML_sync_control, GLX_SGI_make_current_read, GLX_SGI_swap_control,
GLX_SGI_video_sync, GLX_SGIS_multisample, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig,
GLX_SGIX_pbuffer, GLX_SGIX_visual_select_group
|
Notice the client glx vendor... SGI.. Where does it get that info from?
