Ok so I've downloaded the X 4.2.0 source and added
the DRM kernel to it and compiled the DRM source to get the DRM kernel drivers.
(Note: I did not compile XFree 4.2.0 as I had installed it from binaries -
potential mistake)
I then installed the ATI 4.2.0 drivers by moving
the tar to /usr and untarring. (is that all ? - potential mistake
#2)
The problems:
#1 If I run XINE with my two monitors enabled it'll
go for a while and then lock up. It used to work but now is quite
unreliable.
#2 If I connect the TV out, I do not get anything
on bootup. (I mean that I get output until X starts up and then lock
up)
Using the DRM troubleshooting guide, I find the
following:
#1 Using dmesg it says
[drm:r128_cce_start] *ERROR* r128_cce_start called without lock
held
#2 In Xfree86 log it says:
Loading
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/r128_drv.o
compiled for 4.0.99.900
Later it says:
drmGetBusID
returned ' '
AGP didn't init Be sure to load AGPGART.
And still later:
loading
theatre compiled for 4.0.99.900
This seems to say to me that some of the modules I
need are not compiled for 4.2.0 but do I need to compile XFree86 completely to
get this going or what ?
Any input is appreciated
Tom
