I followed the following steps :<br />- recompile libdrm against latest kernel.<br />- update mesa to 7.6.<br />- recompile ati driver.<br /><br />I have at ATI PCIE X700.<br /><br />However, I still do have flickering, the boot is not yet as nice as in fedora. Maybe missing plymouth-gdm-hooks ?Hichamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08588382202212023552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4939875814284471727.post-4115477797243772512009-09-10T17:47:49.839+02:002009-09-10T17:47:49.839+02:00No, Radeon KMS is not event stable in upstream linux kernel 2.6.31 released yesterday, it is still flagged as experimental. And Intel KMS was not stable either in F11.<br /><br />Just because on your system doesn&#39;t mean it does on everybody&#39;s system, which is why we favor stability over new features which might be causing big regressions.Fredhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05183076812550842311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4939875814284471727.post-37723935037615442212009-09-06T22:21:20.231+02:002009-09-06T22:21:20.231+02:00Too bad that KMS is still not available for radeon cards on Mandriva, you could have seen some patches used by fedora to provide this. KMS exists in Fedora since Fedora 9, that means since 2 years. Radeon KMS is stable in Fedora 11. Hope to see it soon in Mandriva.Hichamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08588382202212023552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4939875814284471727.post-75936644630278965982009-08-23T20:31:50.463+02:002009-08-23T20:31:50.463+02:00sweetmastrboyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09835343079796556207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4939875814284471727.post-202398089602047162009-08-22T15:14:08.841+02:002009-08-22T15:14:08.841+02:00Good news...
