The FireGL 1/2/3/4 hardware is not supported by XFree86 directly, and not supported by Red Hat. Usage of proprietary or other 3rd party drivers is also not officially supported by Red Hat. The proprietary drivers that you are attempting to use have not been designed to work specifically with this release of XFree86, and will thus are likely to have problems until they are updated to work with newer XFree86 releases. Unfortunately, that is probably not going to occur until XFree86 4.3.0 is officially released most likely, assuming that new drivers do get released for this hardware for 4.3.0. You'll have to contact ATI or whomever supplied your FireGL drivers for specific vendor support information however. Although this hardware is not supported, I will drop a note to my contacts at ATI in order to make them aware of this issue, however my suggestion would be for you to contact whomever provides technical support for your video card directly and inform them of the issue so that they may track it appropriately. Keep in mind though, that vendors rightfully so - do not generally release special drivers for developmental releases of XFree86, so you may have to wait a while. Sorry I can't provide any more direct assistance than this, but I hope this helps nonetheless. Take care, TTYL Closing bug NOTABUG as there's no NOTOURBUG resolution. |
