don't configure drm in your kernel or at least don't load your kernels drm... one of the 2.6.11 FC3 kernels has DRM=y which is a bit of a pain for us, but Davej has said this should be fixed for all future releases... you can load the drm.ko and radeon.ko from CVS into the kernel, Dave. -- David Airlie, Software Engineer http://www.skynet.ie/~airlied / airlied at skynet.ie Linux kernel - DRI, VAX / pam_smb / ILUG ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.
