I've been trying to set up 3d rendering for the past two days now to no
avail. I'm running Debian GNU/Linux (Sid) on a 2.4.20 kernel installed
via apt-get. Xfree86 is also installed via apt-get. I've got a ATI
Radeon 7500 (agp) on my computer, and at one point in time, had direct
rendering working. (two linux installs and many wipes ago).
Apparently (according to the documentation that I've read). I'm doing
everything right. Yet glxgears still runs with only a black screen and
only at 300fps. I would think that my card would get at least a better
framerate if it's only rendering a black rectangle. :P. I've included
some information about my set up.
According to glxinfo I have direct rendering.
nikal@speedylynx[20:16:34][~]$ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes
There are no errors in my X logs that I can find, and it thinks it's
running with hardware acceleration:
nikal@speedylynx[20:16:38][~]$ cat /var/log/XFree86.0.log | grep Direct
(II) RADEON(0): Direct rendering enabled
I believe I've got the correct kernel modules inserted.
root@speedylynx:~# lsmod | grep radeon
radeonfb 18156 0 (unused)
fbcon-cfb8 3528 0 [radeonfb]
fbcon-cfb24 4424 0 [radeonfb]
fbcon-cfb16 4136 0 [radeonfb]
fbcon-cfb32 3880 0 [radeonfb]
radeon 93760 1
And X seems to be using the correct modules and drivers.
root@speedylynx:~# lsmod | grep agpgart
agpgart 34688 3
root@speedylynx:~# cat /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 | grep radeon
Driver "radeon"
speedylynx:~# cat /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 | grep radeon
Driver "radeon"
speedylynx:~# cat /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 | grep dri
Load "dri"
speedylynx:~# cat /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 | grep glx
Load "glx"
speedylynx:~# cat /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 | grep GLcore
Load "GLcore"
I'm trying to keep this email relatively short, so if more explicit
information is needed, or if I need to provide all of my logs, or
configuration files I can do that.
Thanks for the help.
