Subject: [gentoo-user] ATI radeon 9200 open source drivers - no direct rendering

1 Hi,
2
3 I have an ATI radeon 9200 graphic card. I use the 6.8.2 Xorg (latest x86
4 stable) with the "radeon" driver. My xorg.conf (here attached) seems OK
5 to me, it loads dri, glx and has the 0666 permissions set in section
6 DRI. But I have no direct rendering... I managed to live with it for a
7 while, but now I'd like to see what's wrong and fix it.
8
9 I checked the logs (attached here too) and what concerns me is the
10 following section:
11
12 [...]
13 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
14 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
15 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
16 drmOpenDevice: Open failed
17 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
18 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
19 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
20 drmOpenDevice: Open failed
21 [drm] failed to load kernel module "radeon"
22 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] drmOpen failed
23 (EE) RADEON(0): [dri] DRIScreenInit failed. Disabling DRI.
24 [...]
25
26 I had a look in /dev and the logs are right...I have no /dev/dri/card0
27 device (my /dev/dri/ folder is empty). I have the latest udev, kernel
28 2.6.12-gentoo-r9, but I remember I had no direct rendering before the
29 devfs-->udev switch too.
30
31 I'm quite puzzled. What do I have to do?

33 Thank you,
