I have a laptop with ATI integrated graphics. lspci shows the graphics |
2 |
card as: |

|
4 |
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS485 [Radeon |
5 |
Xpress 1100 IGP] |
6 |
|

I have been unsuccessful in getting X configured to work with this card |
8 |
with dri enabled. I followed the guides at: |

14 |
and I've also Googled for a week with no success. With the x11 drivers |
15 |
installed, I get this error message when starting X: |
16 |
|
17 |
(EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable |
18 |
|

I've emerged ati-drivers and set make.conf to include the fglrx driver |
20 |
as suggested in the ATI guide. However when loading the fglrx.ko |
21 |
module, I get an error about "...taints the kernel". Thus I suspect I |
22 |
have some option set in my kernel that conflicts with the fglrx module? |
23 |
|
24 |
I'm at a loss. Can some kind soul please point me in the right |
25 |
direction toward the steps needed to get 3D acceleration on my laptop? |
26 |
Should I be using x11 or ATI drivers? And if ATI drivers, any idea what |
27 |
is might be conflicting in my kernel? |
