Hi all,
14
15 I have two major problems with my 9600 ATI (RV350) graphic card
16
17 - With the free radeon driver (x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.12.1-r1) :
18 After few minutes, while emerging or working with some software (Gimp),
19 %CPU increases and then X completely freezes. Then reset... :-(
20
21 - The proprietary ATI driver (x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.582) can't
22 compile with gentoo-sources-2.6.28-r4.
23 It asks me to set CONFIG_PCI_MSI=y in the kernel config.
24 But there is no CONFIG_PCI_MSI line in the .config !!!
25

29 Is CONFIG_PCI=y present?
30
31 If set to =n the all PCI things are not configured...
32
33 CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI=y should also be there, for this an internal
34 check if your platform has the possibility to use MSI.

Any idea that would help me ?

42 Maybe a make menuconfig could be a little more informative for you.

56 #CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI is not set, and i don't see the line in make
57 menuconfig.
58 I suppose i have to select another option to make it appear, but i
59 can't find the good one...

61 Thanks
