damn why didn't i think of that

the conflicting libgl is always the problem in mandy...

What do you get when you run

glxinfo

or

glxgears

? That'll confirm whether it's really worked ;)

I stopped it

Im assuming that it is working

direct rendering: No

not yet sadly Sue, with your card you should get thousands of fps doing glxgears, the direct rendering: NO tells you that there is no hardware acceleration.

when you're in the GUI, open a terminal, su to root and try this "lsmod"

As you can see, i have the module "fglrx" loaded. fire gl something or other.

This is the ati driver.

You can see if you can get it to work by doing

$modprobe fglrx

as root

then logging out and logging back in again. I think that restarts X, if it doesn't you might have to do it manually.

Unfortunately there might be another problem. scanning down our glxinfo, they're not the same in many places. The opengl vendor and extentions are different. That might mean games aren't going to work too well...

we can try and sort that out later though, first try and get direct rendering to work at all... do the modprobe fglrx and log out/login

-fissy

ps good luck!

Hi fissy

I tried to fglrxconfig again..to make sure that i had done it right, and this is what i got.

I must say that im getting tottally confused.

Tailored kernel module for fglrx not present in your system.

You must go to /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod subdir

and execute './make.sh' to build a fully customed kernel module.

Afterwards go to /lib/modules/fglrx and run './make_install.sh'

in order to install the module into your kernel's module repository.

(see readme.txt for more details.)

As of now you can still run your XServer in 2D, but hardware acclerated

OpenGL will not work and 2D graphics will lack performance.

Can you help me decipher any of that.

Sue

fissy · March 9, 2004

i think whats happening is:

make.sh tries to make the fglrx module for the particular version of the linux kernel you are running. To do this it needs to see the source code of your kernel. Mandrake made a catastropic oversight of not including this in the 9.2 distribution...

if you search the forums you should be able to find out how to install your kernel source. its something like urpmi kernel-source.

i hope you have broadband...

-fissy

vaughn · March 9, 2004

Sue,

I had exactly the same problems as you - and I did manage to solve them in the end (mostly) following the instruction listed by NBN here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ar...004/01/3/122744

Those instructions aren't much help when it comes to answering all of the questions that fglrxconfig throws at you. Unfortunately I don't have those details on me at the moment. I'll try to get them to you in a day or so.

phunni · March 9, 2004

If you know your monitor details (horizontal sync etc...) then most of the other stuff in fglrxconfig is fairly straight forward.

If you get the kernel sources then you should be able to compile the drivers and then, hopefully, you will be there...

March 10, 2004

Ok i got the kernel source and compiled the drivers. So i think it is working!!

Direct rendering is yes so i think im on the right track.

But when i run glxgears..the numbers seem to be low

[swoo@localhost swoo]$ glxgears

343 frames in 5.0 seconds = 68.600 FPS

375 frames in 5.0 seconds = 75.000 FPS

372 frames in 5.0 seconds = 74.400 FPS

371 frames in 5.0 seconds = 74.200 FPS

374 frames in 5.0 seconds = 74.800 FPS

377 frames in 5.0 seconds = 75.400 FPS

375 frames in 5.0 seconds = 75.000 FPS

369 frames in 5.0 seconds = 73.800 FPS

Are you running glxgears full screen? If so, that's about normal.

phunni · March 10, 2004

Is it running in a small window - if so, that's not normal... but the fact that we are told direct rendering is on is good.

Making real progress!

The best way to really test this is to run a game that's a bit demanding on your graphics. If it runs smoothly enough for youe to play, then improving your framerates is something you can figure out at your leisure...

aRTee · March 10, 2004

Small hint on the side:

you did:

[root@localhost downloads]# cd /lib/modules/fglrx

[root@localhost fglrx]# ls

build_mod/ fglrx_info.txt make_install.sh*

[root@localhost fglrx]# cd /build_mod

bash: cd: /build_mod: No such file or directory

[root@localhost fglrx]# cd /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod

and the above thing is confusing since you did:

cd /build_mod

instead of

cd build_mod

halfway through....

Apart from that, no comments, looks like you're on the right track.

>direct rendering: Yes

Yeah!

>[swoo@localhost swoo]$ glxgears

>343 frames in 5.0 seconds = 68.600 FPS

Boo!

There are two things that might cast light on this.

The first is /bin/dmesg

The second is cat /var/log/XFree86.0.log
