No DRI on rage 128 / Mac

[Étienne BERSAC]

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6-powerpc

Hello,

I installe a fresh dapper with the install-cd on iMac G3 and no rage 128 framebuffer module is shipped. This disable 3D acceleration.

Please enable aty128fb module for kernel.

Étienne.

Hello,

In fact, aty128fb is built in. But why is there no more dri ?

DRI is there, but it's X that really needs to load it. Attach the output of dmesg, and /var/log/Xorg.0.log

[Étienne BERSAC (bersace)]

dmesg output on iMac G3.

[Étienne BERSAC (bersace)]

/var/log/Xorg.0.log on iMac G3 with rage 128 video card.

[Ben Collins (ben-collins)]

Are you actually running Xorg? There's nothing in the Xorg.0.log file you attached.

Woops, for some reason, lp gave me an empty file the first time I tried to load it.

Anyway, I see that drm is loading. For some reason the kernel modules aren't loaded for you though. Try loading these modules, then restart gdm/X:

sudo modprobe drm
sudo modprobe agpgart
sudo modprobe uninorth_agp
sudo modprobe r128
(and maybe)
sudo modprobe radeon

Reattach dmesg and Xorg.0.log after doing this. You can make this permanent across reboots by adding the module names only to /etc/modules

[Étienne BERSAC (bersace)]

Hello,

There is still no /dev/dri/card0 .

[Étienne BERSAC (bersace)]

This is dmesg with drm, r128, uninorth_agp, agpgart and other driver loaded.

[Étienne BERSAC (bersace)]

Xorg log with modules drm, r128, agpgart, uninorth_agp and other loaded.

[Ben Collins (ben-collins)]

Please try the radeon too.

[Étienne BERSAC (bersace)]

It was tryed.
