Hi all!
I have a Saphire HD 4850, which I already got working in the past, but since updating the kernel to 2.6.30-r3 and some other updates the 3d acceleration and 2d acceleration in X broke.
So I tried to install ati-drivers as from the binary installer or from portage, installation is successful, but neither work. I guess it's a problem with the modules or with module loading:

Quote:
Wellenbrecher surgeon # modprobe fglrx
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.30-gentoo-r4/video/fglrx.ko): Operation not permitted
Wellenbrecher surgeon # modprobe drm
FATAL: Error inserting drm (/lib/modules/2.6.30-gentoo-r4/x11-drm/drm.ko): Invalid argument
Wellenbrecher surgeon # modprobe radeonhd
FATAL: Module radeonhd not found.
Wellenbrecher surgeon # modprobe radeon
FATAL: Error inserting radeon (/lib/modules/2.6.30-gentoo-r4/x11-drm/radeon.ko): Invalid argument


I tried DRM by x11-drm too, but x11-drm-20090805 doesn't compile (this version only supports newer radeon chipsets).
Anyway, I have no clue why this module problem stuff happens, maybe a kernel issue? What can I do? Please ask if you need more information.

Yours,
baschni
