| + | Hello, I was looking for soniehtmg like this, but I have a question, how can I perform these actions If when I try to do this bash told me:permission denied, even with root or sudoers permissions.can you explain me that, please? |
| − | * Supported since [[Catalyst 7.11]], which adds support for kernel 2.6.23.

| − | | + | |
| − | ==Installation Option #1 Freshrpms.net repository==
| + | |
| − | rpm -ihv http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/fedora/linux/8/freshrpms-release/freshrpms-release-1.1-1.fc.noarch.rpm
| + | |
| − | yum install -y ati-x11-drv
| + | |
| − | and restart your system.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Installation Option #2 Livna repository==
| + | |
| − | rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-8.rpm
| + | |

| − | The above bugzilla contains a patch to the firegl module source code. Here is an annotated walk-through for those not familiar with using the patch utility:
| + | |
| − | * Install the driver interactively
| + | |
| − | sh ./ati-driver-installer-8.42.3-x86.x86_64.run
| + | |
| − | * Backup the existing module, download the patch
| + | |
| − | cd /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/
| + | |
| − | cp firegl_public.c firegl_public.c.orig
| + | |
| − | wget -qO- http://ati.cchtml.com/attachment.cgi?id=466 > firegl.patch
| + | |
| − | * Apply the patch
| + | |
| − | patch -p0 < firegl.patch
| + | |
| − | * Now build and install the kernel module
| + | |
| − | ./make.sh
| + | |
| − | cd .. ; ./make_install.sh
| + | |
| − | * Create an initial X Server configuration file
| + | |
| − | aticonfig --initial
| + | |
| − | * Restart your X Server (by logging out/in or rebooting)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Issues==
| + | |
| − | * AMD/ATI Catalist Control Center (amdcccle) fails to start, see [http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=672 this bugzilla entry].

| − | FYI: this patch (and others like it) is incomplete. It fails miserably with the drm module loaded. It will not work without drm either, and what would be the point?
| + | |
| − | As seen by dmesg:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
| + | |
| − | [fglrx] Maximum main memory to use for locked dma buffers: 1898 MBytes.
| + | |
| − | [fglrx] ASYNCIO init succeed!
| + | |
| − | [fglrx:KCL_enable_pat] *ERROR* Pat entry 2 is already configured
| + | |
| − | [fglrx] PAT is disabled!
| + | |
| − | [fglrx:firegl_init_module] *ERROR* firegl_stub_register failed
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The livna rpm incurs the same failure. Stick with F7 and kernel 2.6.22, or use the radeon driver instead.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ----
| + | |
| − | Updated by yangyud:<br>
| + | |
| − | You need to remove the loaded "drm" module from kernel before install the fglrx module.<br>
| + | |
| − | '''rmmod radeon; rmmod drm''' <br>

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[Category:Installation Documentation]]
| + | |
| − | Ok, the problem is gdm. I can `startx`, but gdm fails to load with fglrx, and there is no indication in any log as to why.
| + | |
| − | This continues with new 7.11 Catalyst driver.
| + | |
| − | Because of this, the problem is NOT with the driver, rather it is the default GDM time value of 10-seconds. To remedy:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | vi /etc/gdm/custom.conf
| + | |
| − |
| + | |
| − | [daemon]
| + | |
| − | GdmXserverTimeout=60
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | This allows enough time for X to startup before gdm considers it dead and aborts the X startup process.
