    Doesn't work with fglrx 9.3?

    I tried to install fglrx 9.3 on the 2.6.29 32bit kernel, I applied the 'big and ugly' patch, however, the kernel module got compiled and can be loaded.

    Still, I don't get X running with it

      Thats what I get when I try to load it:

      Code:
      [fglrx] Maximum main memory to use for locked dma buffers: 1412 MBytes.                                                                             
      [fglrx:drm_alloc] *ERROR* [driver] Allocating 0 bytes                                                                                               
      [fglrx:firegl_init_device_list] *ERROR* Out of memory when allocating device heads                                                                   
      [fglrx:firegl_init_module] *ERROR* firegl_init_devices failed
      I get this on .28 as well without patch...

        Hello everybody,

        i've also tried to install 2.6.29 kernel with fglrx driver and i also get an error, probably the same as mentionned before. I also tried to patch with this one but i'm not able to find the files. I get an error line 11 with this:
        Code:
        a/common/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/2.6.x/Makefile
        i searched in /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.29 and in modules but i didn't find them. Can anyone tell me where are they ?

        Thks.

          The patch is not against the kernel, it is against fglrx (extracted).

            i've installed fglrx-driver and fglrx-driver-src, i've extracted it and so there is a tree like this:
            Code:
            $ cd /usr/src
            $ tar xvjf fglrx.tar.bz2
            $ cd modules/fglrx
            $ ls
            debian
            drm_compat.h
            drm.h
            drm_os_linux.h
            drmP.h
            drm_proc.h
            ...
            firegl_public.c
            firegl_public.h
            ...
            kcl_agp.c
            ...
            kcl_io.c
            ...
            Makefile
            make.sh
            so i think i've got a right tree but there's not any folder like:
            Code:
            a/common/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/common/lib/common/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/modules/fglrx/build_mod/2.6.x/
            in line 8. Is there other source i haven't dl or i'm stupid ?

            Can you exactly explain me what is to way to do. Sorry for this, i've never used any patch or things like that.

            Thanks a lot.

            P.S: i've forget to precise that i'm on Debian testing 64 on an Turion64.

              Sorry to replay but have you got any idea or suggestions ?

              Is it the package fglrx come from debian or another one or...?

              Thanks.

                patch worked and works fine ...

                Hi,

                I'm sorry to made mystakes, the patch were and is correct, independantly where the sources come from.

                The trouble which froze X Window come from libdrm 2.4.5. This will be probably fixed with libdrm 2.4.6.

                So, get the libdrm 2.4.4, then configure, make, make install. All library files goes by default to /usr/local/lib which comes _before_ /usr/lib !

                Don't forgot ldconfig if you don't want to reboot your linux box.

                see http://groups.google.com/group/linux...45058?lnk=raot

                or google.com/linux === query ===> fglrx libdrm

                See ya.

                    FYI: fglrx 9.3 on kernel 2.6.28.x with libdrm 2.4.5 is not affected.
