[gentoo-user] ati drivers.

[Igor]

Hi. I installed gentoo. It`s very cool system. But i have problem with ati 
drivers for HD3850 agp. Proprietary driver have not 2D acceleration. When i 
moved window then cpu loads on 95%. Open source driver have not 3D 
acceleration and after system startup videocard settings falls to 
640x480@60Hz. When i enter to display settings then settings returns to my 
1024x768@85Hz. Help me with settings.

I don't know the HD3850 card.

From the x11-drivers/ati-drivers-9.10 FAQ
2. Which ATI graphics cards can use this driver? 

The ATI Proprietary Linux driver currently supports RADEON 8500 and later, 
as well as FireGL 8700 and later products. We do not currently plan to include
support for any products earlier than this.
Drivers for earlier products should already be available from the DRI Project or Utah-GLX project.

Here, I have a Readon HD 3300 (onboard) and xorg-server-1.6.5 .
Using the x11-drivers/ati-drivers-9.10 graphics is really fast
including googleearth.

But, as noted earlier, these ati-drivers don't work with
xorg-server-1.7.1

I have xorg-server: 1.6.3.901-r2, and xorg-x11: 7.4-r1. Were is the x11-
drivers/ati-drivers-9.10 FAQ?

on the AMD homepage.

Don't worry, your card is supported by catalyst 9.10, will be supported by 
9.11 and probably be supported by 9.12

Just use the ati-drivers package - and patch xorg so it won't suck in 2d.

Great timing, as I need to revisit my wireless options and
strategies on several laptops.

One can always look at the options:
'ls /usr/portage/net-wireless'

but, it is nice when folks comment on what works well with
kde4, as that is my issue too.


http://gentoo-portage.com/net-wireless/
gives a great interface and let's you know a bit more info.

net-wireless/waveselect
looks promising?
Do post back what you end up using.....

That should be OK. I don't know where to find the FAQ except after
having x11-drivers/ati-drivers-9.10 installed.
The you can find it under
/usr/share/doc/ati-drivers-9.10/html/fglrx/driverfaq.html
/usr/share/doc/ati-drivers-9.10/html/fglrx/linuxfaq.html

is correct link.

Some time ago a 'fix' was added in X that makes 2d with ati-drivers (and nvidia 
drivers) painfully slow. That forum thread explains how to undo the damge. 
Just read the thread.

just because you unpack sopmething somewhere does not make eix know about it. 
It only knows about it after the next sync/emerge.

I solve this problem. Add PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" in make.conf. 
Now i have 1.6.3.901-r99. But CPU 95% anyway. I use driver from amd.

if you use kde - disable effects temporary and turn them back on.

When i switch on effects then cpu loads max on 40%. It better but not as

Volker's instructions work, but the overlay method is more complicated 
than it needs to be.  You can find an easier method of applying the 
patch here:

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-794699.html

This has the benefit that it works with all versions of X.Org and not 
just with 1.6.3 and you don't need a custom ebuild in your local overlay.

Note that the patch we're talking about does *not* fix the CPU load on 
moving windows; ati-drivers are just too slow with this operation. It 
only fixes the resizing, maximizing and opening of new windows.

You didn't answer his question.

Tip: There's big capital letters in it.

Another tip: If we wrote code the way you answered questions in this thread, 
the code would never run. You have to answer questions with facts around here 
if you want help.

Thank you. But i have question about this patch. Why ati driver is very slow 
in X.Org? Is it bug ati driver or X.Org?

as I wrote before, 'they' changed X a long time ago for intel drivers and 
screwed over everybody else. So it is X fault - but X devs put the fingers in 
their ears, say it is everybody's else fault and sing lalala.

I really don`t understand this. X have spec and all must use it. X don`t 
must use spec of intel. If X change spec then all must change drivers. Open 
source driver work fine.
