Radeonhd + unknown M86

Yep, definitely looks like an old drm; the modern code puts out more messages about things like microcode loading.

[hmmm]

:S

Any idea what to do next? It looks like LIBDRM is refusing to build against the kernel headers from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa...e/v2.6.30-rc8/

[agd5f]

what are you trying to build? 2.6.30 already contains drm support for r6xx/r7xx chips.

[hmmm]

I'm trying to build the latest libdrm modules from https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa (i.e. step 3 on the xorg-edgers page)

/var/cache/modass/drm-modules-souce-buildlog http://pastebin.com/m70a9e8bb

After using easy-drm-modules-installer script (http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~xorg-ed...ules-installer) to build and install the latest drm modules;

dmesg still returns:

Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810

Is there anyway to force the new module to be initialised?

[hmmm]

Just got round to installing a clean kernel and enabling EXA has results in xvinfo returning 16 ports.

Thank you Bridgman and agd5f for your help.
