CentOS 4.4 and ATI Radeon 9250 Pro
Hi,
I have played within the last few hours with the ATI closed source driver trying to make my card work (Gigabyte 9250 Pro card).
I'm using CentOS 4.4 with the latest official kernel: 2.6.9-42.0.3.EL. I installed the driver, let it compiled, checked that there are no errors, that the module loads, unloads - in short, everything looks OK.
Now the "fun" part.
I have my xorg.conf file. With the "radeon" driver and loads happily and runs nicely. When I try to change it to "fglrx" - it simply goes back to console to tell me that (EE) No devices detected and "no screens found".
I have used the aticontrol with dozens of parameters. Nada, didn't help.
My Machine: Pentium 4, 2GB RAM, CentOS 4.4 with all updates, kernel 2.6.9-42.0.3.EL (same as RHEL).
Here are 2 "attachments". The first one is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, the other - the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
Hetz
