Hello,
I have an old laptop (Dell Latitude CPx H500 GT), which has an ATI Rage
Mobility P/M AGP 2x card. (If I see well on forums, it uses the mach64
architecture.) I've installed openSUSE 11.1 with KDE 4.
Because direct rendering isn't supported on this card by default, I tried
to build the drivers based on this guide:
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building. I followed the steps until 1.9
without errors, I just got warning messages during the steps, I hope that
isn't important. But then, actually I don't have a symlink /etc/X11/X, nor
a /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 or /usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg directory (only a symlink
xauth, which is pointing to /bin/xauth) so I don't know, how to proceed.
Now DRM loads at startup, but it doesn't detect my card.
dmesg says:
[drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
mach64: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module
(the second line is listed 5 times)
modprobe mach64 says:
FATAL: Error inserting mach64
(/lib/modules/2.6.27.21-0.1-pae/kernel/char/drm/mach64.ko): Invalid module
format
Could someone help me?
Thanks in advance,
Norbi
