full glxinfo output
I tried enabling full GNOME 3 via 'gnome-shell --replace' and it starts but has quite a few artefacts, main one is that menu with logoff and shutdown is transparent and not showing all options. Then I tried KDE4 with Plasma and it works, so I just stuck with KDE4, it works great on this particular ATI card. This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Created attachment 587617 [details] Xorg log file Description of problem: Installed Fedora 17 but instead of full GNOME 3 desktop I only get GNOME 3 in fallback mode. Are there any tricks to enable full GNOME 3 desktop on this hardware? Do I need to run some other FLOSS or proprietary driver ? lspci: 02:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 PRO] (Secondary) (rev 01) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
