I am running Gentoo with a 2.6.21-r3 amd64 kernel. I have been trying to use the ATI drivers in an effort to get 3D acceleration working. My first question is "is it possible to use the ATI driver with the Radeon Xpress 1100 IGP?" It seems to be based upon the information in this link:
So assuming it's possible, I have used Gentoo's portage system to add the ATI driver to my system following these guides:
However I get the following error when attempting to load the fglrx module into the kernel:
tagalong ~ # modprobe fglrx
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.21-gentoo-r3/video/fglrx.ko): Operation not permitted
I am using the 'root' account.
In a last ditch effort I removed the ATI drivers installed by Gentoo's portage and downloaded the ATI driver directly from ATI's web site. Next, I installed them per the instructions but got the same error.
I'd really appreciate any help in getting 3D acceleration working with this graphics card.
Thanks,
Drew
