Hi All, |
2 |
|
3 |
I cleared out some xorg related packages at some point because my machine will |
4 |
not shutdown without a kernel oops when it is trying to unload the radeon |
5 |
driver. It now seems I can no longer find glxgears/info. What have I |
6 |
removed that I shouldn't have? |
7 |
|
8 |
I remember unmerging xorg-x11 (there was advice in this list that this is not |
9 |
needed when using Fluxbox or other lightweight window managers). |
10 |
|
11 |
When I moved to x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r* I also unmerged |
12 |
x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati. I recall concluding at the time that the new |
13 |
xorg-server did not need such an external driver - is that right? |
14 |
|
15 |
I have set radeon as the video card in my /etc/make.conf, but Xorg.0.log shows |
16 |
ati_drv.so - should it be so? |
17 |
|
18 |
# less /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep driver |
19 |
X.Org XInput driver : 2.1 |
20 |
(==) Matched ati for the autoconfigured driver |
21 |
New driver is "ati" |
22 |
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//ati_drv.so |
23 |
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//radeon_drv.so |
24 |
(II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_texture_from_pixmap with driver support |
25 |
|
26 |
# lsmod | grep radeon |
27 |
radeon 145696 2 |
28 |
drm 141892 3 radeon |
