Thread: Radeon X1800 driver and openGL


hi,

on karmic 9.10, using default open source drivers. problem drivers detects graphic card r300 (i 9xxx series) gpu, when should r520 (x1xxx series). because of that, can't run applications require opengl 2, because r300 supports 1.5.

lspci
code:
01:00.0 vga compatible controller: ati technologies inc r520 [radeon x1800
glxinfo
code:
opengl vendor string: dri r300 project  opengl renderer string: mesa dri r300 (r520 7100) 20090101 x86/mmx/sse2 tcl  opengl version string: 1.5 mesa 7.6
i had problem since 8.10, hoping fixed on next distributions, hasn't.

can me please?

the mesa r300 driver covers r300-r500 cards. nothing wrong there.

i can't run applications require opengl 2
you , else running open-source ati. it's coming, though. (gallium3d)
