 Posted: Tue Apr 03, 2007 11:16 pm Post subject: No DRI with radeon driver (Radeon 9200) [SOLVED] |
 |
|
I had some troubles with FS, so I had to reinstall Gentoo. I've installed Xorg and opensource radeon driver. Everything worked fine, DRI worked.
Then I decided to try out proprietaty drivers. Installed the correct version, got DRI working... didn't like it. Decided to roll back on radeon.
Intalled everything back to radeon. Xorg starts without errors, but... without DRI.
Or, actually, DRI works if I start X as root.
So, how do I enable DRI again with opensource driver?
BTW, I had similar problem before re-installing Gentoo. So I just stickied with ATI.

Do you have this section in your Xorg.conf:
| Code: | Section "dri"
Mode 0666
EndSection |

According to your log direct rendering is working and as you have it as root that appears to be so. The problem has to lie
elsewhere...perhaps a permission problem with one of the libs?

I tried re-emerging xorg-server, x11-drm, xf86-video-ati, Mesa -- nothing helped

Hi there !
I just resolved my problem, exactly as yours.
check where points YOUR USER'S LD_LIBRARY_PATH. In my case it was pointing to some location that I've setup earlier to work ... and ... forgot about it. After I've unset it - it started to work. 
Hope it helps.

Make sure your user is in the video group in /etc/group

Sorry that my previous tip did not solve your prob...
group video, I think, will not help, since the permission is 0666, that means everyone has read/write access to the /dev/dri/card0 (for gentoo)
following is my experience with radeon 9200SE:
1. the hardware itself is VERY sensitive to heat. I've put the fan onto radiator of the card
2. remove the card from m/b for approx. 20 minutes and reinsert it back ( I don't know why, but it helped me somehow
the card appeared in /dev/dri ... )
3. if you have dri compiled in your kernel (as modules) and x11-dri move the drivers from :
| Code: |
/ets/init.d/xdm stop
mv /lib/modules/YOUR_KERNEL/kernel/drivers/char/drm /somewere
rmmod radeon dri
depmod -a
modinfo radeon [make sure this module is not from YOUR_VERSION_KERNEL/.../char/drm but rather from YOUR_VERSION_KERNEL/x11-drm ]
modprobe radeon
/ets/init.d/xdm start
|
Then check what have you got
Let us know what happend
Good luck

Oh, I forgot
make sure you have compiled x11-base/x11-drm and x11-libs/libdrm with your current kernel version !!!
In case nothing helps, I would suggest to look at:
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/DriTroubleshooting
Good Luck again |

SOLVED!
Thanks for pointing to http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/DriTroubleshooting
As it suggested, I ran
| Code: | lx@LX ~ $ export LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose
lx@LX ~ $ glxinfo |
And found out this:
| Code: | libGL: XF86DRIGetClientDriverName: 5.2.0 r200 (screen 0)
libGL: OpenDriver: trying $LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH/tls/r200_dri.so
libGL: OpenDriver: trying $LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH/r200_dri.so
libGL error: dlopen $LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH/r200_dri.so failed ($LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH/r200_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/tls/r200_dri.so
libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/r200_dri.so
libGL error: dlopen /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/r200_dri.so failed (/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/r200_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/tls/r200_dri.so
libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/r200_dri.so
libGL error: dlopen /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/r200_dri.so failed (/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/r200_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
libGL error: unable to load driver: r200_dri.so |
That's what caused the trouble!
| Code: | lx@LX ~ $ echo $LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH/
$LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH::/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/
lx@LX ~ $ ls /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri
atiogl_a_dri.so fglrx_dri.so
lx@LX ~ $ locate r200_dri
/usr/lib/dri/r200_dri.so |
So I simply did
| Code: | | lx@LX /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/dri/r200_dri.so . |
And now it works! |

I have the exact same problem. But there is one difference. I have the r200_dri.so drivermodule in /usr/lib/dri/ and there is a working symlink to that file in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/
But still i get this glxinfo output after switching the opengl interface to ati. Switching it back to xorg-x11 and dri works.

You say you are using ati-drivers, however your xorg.conf specifies the "radeon" driver for the device,
which is the open source driver provided by x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati, as opposed the the proprietary binary drivers provided by ati.
If it's the binary drivers you want to use, you need to specify "fglrx" as the driver, but the open source drivers are probably better with this card (read the first post of this thread).
