    Ati raedon 9200se + Slakcware 10.1



    Hi. I have an Ati radeon 9200SE card. I downloaded the new drivers from ati's site for X.org, and I have built the fglrx module, and it loads ok. Here is my lsmod output:
    Code:
    Module                  Size  Used by    Tainted: P

agpgart                45092   4
    agpgart is still used, why ?. Is this relevant ? Anyway, when I try to run fgl_glxgears I get a black, empty window and the message in the console:

    Code:

    And you have

    Code:
    Load                              "glx"
    In the "Module" section of your xorg.conf file?
    There are two major products that come out of Berkeley: LSD and UNIX. We don't believe this to be a coincidence.

    Not sure about the radeon drivers, but with nvidia's drivers you need to remove the dri line.

    Removing the dri line causes severe performence penalty on my machine. I still don't know what this means :
    Code:
    FGLTexMgr: open of shared memory object failed (Function not implemented)
__FGLTexMgrCreateObject: __FGLTexMgrSHMmalloc failed!!!
fglX11AllocateManagedSurface: __FGLTexMgrCreateObject failed!!

    Problem solved. Here is what my friend google told ne: If you are unable to use any 3d applications and get this error instead:

    FGLTexMgr: open of shared memory object failed (Function not implemented)
    __FGLTexMgrCreateObject: __FGLTexMgrSHMmalloc failed!!!
    fglX11AllocateManagedSurface: __FGLTexMgrCreateObject failed!!
    FGLTexMgr: open of shared memory object failed (Function not implemented)
    __FGLTexMgrCreateObject: __FGLTexMgrSHMmalloc failed!!!
    fglX11AllocateManagedSurface: __FGLTexMgrCreateObject failed!!
    FGLTexMgr: open of shared memory object failed (Function not implemented)
    __FGLTexMgrCreateObject: __FGLTexMgrSHMmalloc failed!!!

    Then you do not have tmpfs mounted on /dev/shm, which the driver requires. To mount this, add to following line to /etc/fstab (if it isn't there already):


    File: /etc/fstab

    tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

    Then just do a:
    Code:
    # mount /dev/shm
