Thanks for the bug report. Yes, you are correct -- there is no xorg-x11-drv-radeon component, because radeon is just an another name for the ati driver. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Please attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) and X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link below. Could you please also try to run without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf whatsoever and let X11 autodetect your display and video card? Attach to this bug /var/log/Xorg.0.log from this attempt as well, please. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.

Xorg.0.log after booting from F8test2 LiveCD
There is another regression with this card where 3D Effects no longer work where there works fine with F7. I reported it against compiz in Bug 290331 but maybe should have reported it against the driver. Putting in a cross reference here so that it gets the correct eyeballs on it: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=290331 Created attachment 196171 [details]
Xorg.0.log after removing the xorg.conf and restarting X on F8test2 LiveCD
I noticed when looking at the X log that I submitted, it properly identifies my card model but it seems that the only X800XL listed is the PCIe version where mine is in an AGP 8X slot. It may not be relevant but I thought it worth mentioning. Can you try the latest radeon driver in Rawhide? I think we've fixed this, it was making TV out more important than VGA so limiting things to 800x600... Is there a Rawhide LiveCD spin? If not, I can probably scrounge up a extra HD to try Rawhide on when I get a little time. I spoke too soon. Did your improved radeon driver make it into the rawhide-20070925 LiveCD that Jeremy just announced? I can confirm that the radeon driver included in the rawhide-20070925 picks a much better resolution (not the highest possible but much better than 800x600 and at least the highest is an option) and, in fact, correctly culls out a bunch of inappropriate widescreen resolutions that F7 showed as options. It also does the compiz stuff even better. Thanks for your hard work. Closing per reporter's comment 10. Thanks for collaboration. |
