KMS now works with kernel-PAE-2.6.29-0.137.rc5.git4.fc11.i686 - perhaps bco * Thu Feb 19 2009 Dave Airlie <airlied> - radeon: add module device table BUT now it hangs when trying to start X, leaving a frozen plymouth animation on screen. xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.10.0-3.fc11.i586 Xorg.0.log ends with: drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 11, (OK) drmOpenByBusid: Searching for BusID pci:0000:01:00.0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 11, (OK) drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor returns 11 drmOpenByBusid: drmGetBusid reports pci:0000:01:00.0 (EE) AIGLX error: Calling driver entry point failed(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering (II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized /usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so (II) GLX: Initialized DRISWRAST GL provider for screen 0 (II) RADEON(0): Setting screen physical size to 338 x 270 resize called 1280 1024 When booting to runlevel 3 (fine hi-res KMS console) and running startx the screen flickers while retrying to start X. Now I can't boot to X at all on my pretty ordinary Dell, so I raise priority/severity to be more release-blocker-ish. Created attachment 333157 [details]

Xorg.0.log failing to start
It works fine now, thanks! xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.11.0-3.fc11.i586 kernel-PAE-2.6.29-0.203.rc7.fc11.i686 Closing |
Created attachment 332546 [details] dmesg Description of problem: With F10 KMS kind of worked for my ATI Radeon - unless disabled with nomodeset With F11 KMS is always disabled. I can see from the kernel changelog that it was disabled some months ago, but AFAICS it should be enabled again. So either it is just me (or my hardware) that has a problem, or it is a general known issue for which I haven't been able to find a tracking issue.
