[Help]Compiling and installing succsessfully the evergreen driver on ubuntu lucid

[Auroraa9420]

libxext-dev
libxxf86vm-dev
libxdamage-dev

But the easiest way to start is probably to do something like "apt-get build-dep libgl1-mesa-dri" which should install everything needed to build Mesa (as shipped in Lucid). To build from git you will at least also need libtalloc-dev

i compiled and installed the mesa driver from git and + i downloaded the evergreen code from git and still Compiz and Wine/Arena games don't work

help me

Is this a 32bit system or not?

glxinfo |grep ender
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |grep EE
dmesg |grep drm

Is this a 32bit system or not?

well the core structure is i686 so i think its a x86 :P

[Auroraa9420]

what's the output of:

glxinfo |grep ender
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |grep EE
dmesg |grep drm

glxinfo = nothing

cat /var/log/xorg.0.log |grep EE =
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
(EE) RADEON(0): Acceleration initialization failed
(EE) GLX error: Can not get required symbols.
(EE) Microsoft Microsoft? Digital Media Keyboard: failed to initialize for relative axes.

and dmesg |grep drm =

Do you have the kernel Evergreen code?

Do you have the kernel Evergreen code?

do you mean this? http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mes...339e894d4ebac4

Assumably yes. I don't have Evergreen hardware so I'm regrettably dropped a bit out of the loop there. Most asked because your kernel seems rather ancient.

(but no, not meaning that, that's a patch for Mesa, I'm talking about kernel)

i dont dout it because i use the default Ubuntu kernel alltho i tried to compile a vanila kernel my self and allmost every one of my atempts were epic fails :P or more precise with a kernel panics :S

alltho i tried to compile a PPA ubuntu kernel and it made things worse because i could't even have a 1024*867 resolution :S
