Be sure that you disabled the Direct Rendering Manager in the kernel and emerge x11-drm. Have a look at the Hardware 3D Acceleration Guide.

Sorry, I can't help. I unmerged xmms long time agoâ¦

Try this.
From /etc/make.conf:
| Code: |
USE="dri opengl radeon"
VIDEO_CARDS="fbdev radeon v4l vesa vga"
|
| Code: |
# uname -a
Linux barnabas 2.6.17 #2 Mon Jul 3 01:09:01 EDT 2006 ppc 7447/7457, altivec supported GNU/Linux
|
| Code: |
# zgrep AGP /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_AGP=y
CONFIG_AGP_UNINORTH=y
# zgrep DRM /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_DRM=m
CONFIG_DRM_RADEON=m
|
| Code: |
# modprobe drm
# modprobe radeon
|
Check permissions:
| Code: |
# /bin/ls -l /usr/bin/Xorg
-rws--x--x 1 root root 1751812 2006-07-03 00:08 /usr/bin/Xorg
|
This performs stable dual-head, with glxgears at 2300 FPS on my Radeon 9600 Mobility (M10)

If you use see:
| Code: |
#grep FontPath /etc/X11/xorg.conf
FontPath "unix/:-1"
|
Then:
| Code: |
# emerge x11-apps/xfs
# etc-update
# /etc/init.d/xfs stop zap mkfontdirs start
|
Also, from my /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
| Code: |
Section "Module"
...
Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
...
EndSection

Suspicious. This might fix it.
| Code: |
# mv /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/X11/xkb.old
# emerge x11-misc/xkeyboard-config x11-apps/xkbcomp

You take the kernel DRM? The howto sais not to use the kernel modul and to deacivate it.
| Code: | # zgrep AGP /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_AGP=y
# CONFIG_AGP_UNINORTH is not set
# zgrep DRM /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_DRM=y
# CONFIG_DRM_TDFX is not set
# CONFIG_DRM_R128 is not set
CONFIG_DRM_RADEON=y |
As far as I remember I had DRI working with monolith xorg-x11-6.8.2-r8. I will try to activate that AGP_UNINORTH.
| Code: | | # equery hasuse radeon |
..shows no packages.
| Code: | # grep FontPath /etc/X11/xorg.conf
#FontPath "unix/:-1"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/local/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/encodings/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/util/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/misc/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/75dpi/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/100dpi/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/cyrillic/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/Type1/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/TTF/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/ukr/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/default/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/artwiz/"
#FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/truetype"
#FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/Speedo/"
#FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/CID/"
#FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/lfp-fix/"
#FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/lfp-var/"
#FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/sharefont/"
#FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/freefont/"
#FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/ttfs/"
#FontPath "/usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts/" |
Is just "/usr/share/fonts" enough here?
What is "unix/:-1" for? So far I don't have x11-apps/xfs fontserver installed.

Works fine with kernel DRM and radeon.

Best performance if you have kernel 2.6.17.x . (2.6.1[56] gives me terrible performance, the drivers are too old.) Otherwise, you really should checkout the drivers from CVS. See HOWTO: Radeon 9500 (and newer) with DRI for ideas.

I suppose that all packages have now moved this from USE to VIDEO_CARDS. This was not originally so.

If you don't use fontserver (Gentoo default is not to; many distributions do though), then no matter. The unix port is for a socket connection to the fontserver app. The primary advantage of the fontserver is having multiple X instances (including VNC, etc.) use a shared service for fonts.
