TTM, Radeon KMS Pull Request Goes In

[Perry3D]

Jeah, thank you Linus.

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=8d15b0ec32f20a57881dc073b2e8d11dea0ccceb

I meant libdrm -- has the modesetting-gem branch been merged into master?

It has been merged, use libdrm master branch, but be sure to configure with --enable-radeon-experimental-api

I'm having the same problem:

(EE) RADEON(0): [dri] RADEONDRIGetVersion failed because of a version mismatch.
[dri] radeon.o kernel module version is 2.0.0 but version 1.17.0 or newer is needed.

I have:
-kernel 2.6.31-rc1-git2
-mesa from master
-libdrm from master with --enable-radeon-experimental-api
-xf86-video-ati from kms-support
-xorg-server 1.6.1.901

what else do i miss?
thanks

OK, let's try to get you out of this.

First of all, you need to check KMS is working :
- stop X11
- # modprobe radeon modeset=1

It should change your screen resolution to its native one.

If this works, it means you did well on the kernel side.

You may have not respected the compilation order:
- libdrm with --enable-radeon-experimental-api.
- xf86-video-ati from kms-support
- mesa master

This should work. If it doesn't, you may want to get the latest kernel from git. Yesterday, Linus merged some DRM fixes, it may help.

Good luck !

it's already the native one: it switches to the native resolution during the boot process.

- mesa master

Ok, done.

I just pulled git3, which has all the drm fixes.
But it still doesn't solve the problem
Someone on irc mentioned that I could have some old headers somewhere, but how would I find them? Anyway I don't think this is the case because I'm using gentoo ebuilds.
Thanks for your help
