Before i had to reinstall linux i had drm workign fine on my laptop, on the ATI igp U1. howver, this time around, i cannot find the solution i used before, and i'm afraid this time i must ask
I'm using a 2.6.10 kernel, slack 10, upgraded to current with swaret (apart from x.org which i did myselkf from source as swaret broke x).
I have radeonfb compiled into the kernel, same with the radeon i2c module
agpgart and drm (for the ati igps) are both modules,
my xorg.conf has lines to load dri and glx etc (releavent lines below)
[code}
# This loads the GLX module
Load "glx"
# This loads the DRI module
Load "dri"
Section "Device"
Identifier "builtinradeon"
Driver "radeon"
#VideoRam 65536
# Insert Clocks lines here if appropriate
