PostPosted: Fri Mar 19, 2010 1:03 am    Post subject: fglrx + kde 4.4.1 + Radeon 5770 = no opengl?? Reply with quote

I'm having a problem with the desktop effects on KDE4, but can't seem to find much help on this.

Is there any way to use the desktop effects opengl renderer, or to speed up xrender?

Everything is moving quite slowly when I minimize a window, maximize a window or close a window, and X is using 40-50% cpu at all times.

Any solutions?

Have you tried the ati open source driver?
Code:
 ~ # grep radeon /etc/make.conf
VIDEO_CARDS="radeon"
Code:
 ~ # grep radeon /etc/X11/xorg.conf
        Driver      "radeon"
Code:
 ~ $ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes
Code:
 ~ # qlist -I x11-drivers
x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev
x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati

I don't think the open source radeon driver has any 2D/3D acceleration support for Radeon 5000s yet.

From what I can tell, you're correct. Couldn't hurt to try at this point though.

It's unlikely that the KDE version has anything to do with it. Post the output of these please:
  • eselect rc show
  • egrep '^\((W|E)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log
