    Yup.

      BTW, thanks for the quick reply.

      I hope we here on this forum can puzzle this one out.

        For those in the know, what are the relevent issues in this situation? I understand the MVP3 chipset has had past issues with the ATI video driver. Other reports I've read from other say that acceleration does work with this hardware combiniation under M-soft operating systems. That seems to be the only 'successes' I've read about.

        Does the root of this problem lie in a disconnect between the linux chipset support and the ATI r200 driver?

        In your humble opinion does a solution lie more with the chipset support? Or the radeon support?

        Thanks.

              Kernel Developers comments

              I sent a kernel developer a snippet of my Xorg log and asked his opinion.
              ************
              Here is a dusty issue I've brought to the ATI driver board.
              I'm just trying to understand if the via chipset support
              is where I should pursuit this issue, or strictly the
              X radeon driver folks. Or, some other.

              My MVP3 chipset board will does not allow my ATI r2xx video
              adapter to use DRI. The X log simply shows:
              *************

              He sent a brief reply. It might be helpful.

              **************
              Without looking to deeply into it, it looks like drmOpenDevice opens /dev/dri/card0 and then tries to set the busID of that device. That fails, probably because that's the VIA device. drmOpenDevice should then try /dev/dri/card1, but it doesn't. Also a little suspicious is the drmBetBusid return.

              So the issue is probably either in core drm or in libdrm.

                  Yup, sorry I was futzing around a bit.

                    This is another hint from a kernel developer that responded.
                    >
                    > (II) RADEON(0): [dri] Found DRI library version 1.3.0 and kernel module version 1.29.0

                    Weird... maybe some process is keeping the DRM device open, does

                    sudo lsof /dev/dri/card0

                    give any results when the X server isn't running? If not, check out the kernel output; if it doesn't seem to have anything relevant, try writing 1 to /sys/modul /drm/parameters/debug before starting the X server.
                    FYI running the lsof /dev/dri/card0, did nothing at all.

                    I don't know what he means by "try writing 1 to /sys/modul /drm/parameters/debug". If someone helps me decipher this request, I'll try it. Thanks.

                      (as root)
                      echo 1 > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug

                      or when loading the drm module before starting X:
                      modprobe drm debug=1
