static Posted July 15, 2003 Report Share Posted July 15, 2003 Hello I've installed gentoo 1.4 rc4 and X and fluxbox, 3D never worked for me. Last night I installed 2.6.0test1. Now, when I boot up, the modules in my /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 file (radeon, scanner, printer, all compiled as modules) don't load (I get the [!! over on the right) I also see this when starting x: modprobe: QM_MODULES: function not implemented modprobe: QM_MODULES: function not implemented modprobe: can't locate module agpgart [drm] failed to load kernel module "agpgart" modprobe: QM_MODULES: function not implemented modprobe: QM_MODULES: function not implemented modprobe: can't locate module radeon [drm] failed to load kernel module "radeon" (EE) RADEON(0): [dri] DRIScreeninit failed. Disabling DRI. Failed to load groupfile: I'm emerging module-init-tools now to see if that helps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted July 15, 2003 Report Share Posted July 15, 2003 also try loading the modules that give a !! on startup and report any errors (if the modutils-init doesn't work) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
static Posted July 16, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2003 OK folks - you NEED to emerge module-init-tools for the 2.5.x or 2.6.x kernels to be able to load modules properly!! Now I dare anyone to meet me in Quake 3 to get their rumps roasted... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
