Dell Dimension 4600 with a Radeon 9800 128MB ram During install, anaconda tries to use the radeon driver, fails, and falls back to vesa (Bug #105962). After install, X does not work at all. When r-c-xfree86 runs, it fails because it tries to use the radeon driver, and that has resolvable Chip Id issues (Bug #106102) If Bug #106102 is fixed, r-c-xfree86 will presumably Just Work. However, if Bug #106102 isn't fixed, r-c-xfree86 should still be able to generate a working vesa configuration, and currently it fails when falling back to that.
I can't get it to run at all with a radeon 9500 / dual or single monitor setup [root@grover root]# /usr/bin/redhat-config-xfree86 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/redhat-config-xfree86/xconf.py", line 406, in ? dialog = xConfigDialog.XConfigDialog(hardware_state, xconfig, vc) File "/usr/share/redhat-config-xfree86/xConfigDialog.py", line 398, in __init__ key, value = string.split(card.driver, ":") ValueError: unpack list of wrong size [root@grover root]#
I get the same error with test3 up2date as of 2003-10-16 using XFree86-4.3.0-40. redhat-config-xfree86 doesn't work. Using radeon 9500 NP. My drivers apear to be loading fine.
This issue is a showstopper for my Radeon 9200 128MB, where redhat-config-xfree86 is completely unable to configure the card. Manually editing XF86Config however works perfectly, with full DRI acceleration. The above traceback is exactly the error that I see.
Would you agree this is the same problem as Bug 106501? If so, please close DUPLICATE because that other report has more details.
Read Bug 106501 and download Brent's new redhat-config-xfree86. Re-open this bug if that package does not solve the problem for you. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 106501 ***
I'm using all the latest updates posted on Oct 30, 2k3. Not sure if this is related. Been using ATI Binary on dual display for the last week. No problems cept for this app but fglrxconfig & fireglcontrol seem to be suitable for now.
