Hi,

        I spent most of the week end installing a test platform for
the r300.sf.net code base (most of the time spent because there is no
clear HOWTO for installing the CVS various trees from dri.sf.net).

        At this point I'm in the following situation:

        kernel-2.6.8 with drm module from r300.sf.net
        Xorg CVS tree of 2004/10/23 with ati.patch from r300.sf.net
        Mesa CVS tree of 2004/10/23 with mesa.patch from r300.sf.net +
                r300 driver module from r300.sf.net

        (when I say r300.sf.net I mean the CVS tree, not the files 
         displayed on the web page). 

        A short summary of the situation:

        When I load the drm/radeon modules I get:

[drm] Initialized drm 1.0.0 20040925
[drm] Initialized radeon 1.12.0 20041023 on minor 0: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AP 
[Radeon 9600]

        When I run /spare/xorg/Xorg I don't see the expected message "dri
enabled". Now, I run /spare/xorg/Xorg without any configuration file.
Does someone have a template configuration file I could use ? I've
tried Xorg -configure but it fails because two drivers define
the same symbol and I'm not too eager to solve this problem just for
the sake of getting my hands on a template configuration file.

        I compiled r300_demo and it says (r300_demo --diag):

CHECKPOINT main 488
driver "radeon" version 1.12.0
driver description "ATI Radeon"
AGPVendorID: 0000  AGPDeviceId: 0000
BusID: "pci:0000:01:00.0"
Context 1
AGP base: 0x00000000
Map Offset         Size    Type Handle     Mtrr
 0 0xd0000000   262144 KB   FB 0x00000000    1
 1 0xf5000000       64 KB  REG 0xf8ad0000  none

        and blocks forever (does not exit).

        I'm unsure if any of what I've done is useful to anyone. I
would like to get to the point where I'm reasonably sure that I did
not do any mistake. Debugging r300 is currently out of the question
because of the deadlines I must meet in my day job. However, updating
from CVS, recompiling, running a few tests and sending the output
is something I can do on a regular basis.

        Cheers,
