Hello,
ive got some trouble getting fglrx ATI Drivers to work. Because the fglrx modul was not able to insert.
| Code: |
# modprobe fglrx
fglrx: module license 'Proprietary. (C) 2002 - ATI Technologies, Starnberg, GERMANY' taints kernel.
fglrx: Unknown symbol sys_ioctl
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.12/misc/fglrx.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg
|
dmesg: (depends on kernel, but mostly something similar to:)
| Code: |
fglrx: Unknown symbol register_ioctl32_conversion
fglrx: Unknown symbol unregister_ioctl32_conversion
fglrx: Unknown symbol sys_ioctl
|
I installed ati-drivers with emerge
I havent found help in any HOWTOs about that problem. But i found a solution in some forums.
Dont know why but i had to activate 32-bit emulation following Gentoo AMD64 FAQ:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-amd64-faq.xml#emul32
So after recompile my Kernel with enabled IA32 Emulation i could load fglrx module without errors.
So what about you guys? Havent you got that problem with AMD64 and amd64Gentoo ?
I hope that solution will help some.
