 Posted: Mon Dec 04, 2006 6:53 am Post subject: libGL errors... messed up drivers? |
 |
|
I have just installed the ATI Proprietary Drivers, and I noticed something funky. when I run the command glxinfo | grep render, I get this message:
| Code: | libGL error: failed to open DRM: Operation not permitted
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering
direct rendering: No
GLX_ATI_pixel_format_float, GLX_ATI_render_texture
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect |
My video card is a Radeon X300 SE, if that helps...
Thank you in advance.

Hopefully one of them will be ati related. If not then there are drivers missing.
Incidentally... eselect is one of those commands with many options. You can see them all with eselect list-modules. Each one of those in turn can be listed with, for instance, eselect kernel list. Useful command to know about.
HTH,

Huh...none are ATI related. All I get is this:
So... what should I do? How do get the appropriate drivers?

well... I didn't use the ebuild. I went to the website and downloaded the installer.
I am trying to recompile using the ebuild now, and I get this:
| Code: | ...make: leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.6.18-gentoo-r3'
*DRM module not built
>>> Source compiled.
>>> Test phase [not enabled]: x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.27.10.r1

*Installing fglrx module
install: cannot stat 'fglrx.ko': No such file or directory
!!! ERROR: x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.27.10-r1 failed.

!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. |

| In your kernel config make sure Direct Rendering Manager (it's under Device Drivers --> Character Devices) is being compiled as a module. |

Hmm...apparently it was already selected as a module.

That really implies you haven't successfully emerged the ati drivers yet. Otherwise, it would give you ati as an option. I would suggest going through the guide again very closely.
In particular (although the problem could be anywhere along the line), there must be a VIDEO_CARDS="fglrx" line in your make.conf file, you must have emerged the driver package, and you must be sure the agpgart, ati driver, and drm modules are loaded. Doing an lsmod should show whether they are. Doing a modprobe -l should show you what's available.

OK... I followed all the steps in the guide and set those modules to run at boot, but I still get the same error as I did before:
| Code: | ...make: leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.6.18-gentoo-r3'
*DRM module not built
>>> Source compiled.

Are you sure that /usr/src/linux points to the correct sources for the kernel you're currently using?

I think so. It worked when I added the module for my network card...
If it's not the right directory, how do I find out which IS the right directory?
*EDIT* I compiled my kernel with genkernel, if that helps.
