This is pretty tricky stuff for me as I am new to Fedora, ok. That said I have gotten as far as
[root@localhost xc]# exports/lib/modules/dri/*.so /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri and I get:- Segmentation fault [root@localhost xc]# there are loads of posts on google about this which mean nothing to me not all of this relates to the new kernel and i dont want to try to fix it with a patch that will not work. Specifically I dont want to not be able to start my system. I got no errors during the last stage I checked this with the command u suggested with grep '\*\*\*' world.log. Could you please help with this as I need to get up to speed as quick as I can so I can get modelling in 3d. Thanks chap. James. |
This technique worked for me on the first attempt.
I followed the tutorial, yet had an error on compiling, if you have, just do like me, compile as a user then switch to root, and if you still have an error, reboot and try again... if you still have an error, i dunno... Seriously, now i can fully enjoy OpenGL games on my laptop at DECENT speeds. Thank you so much. JP_Design.04 There was a typo in his tutorial before exports/.... add cp like: cp exports/libs/..... |
Trouble...
I'm *attempting* an install using the howto on a Compaq Presario 2545US, on Fedora Core 2. I've been having a wee bit of trouble. After following the howto completely, I get an alert saying that the Xserver could not start. Upon viewing the details, it complains that it was not able to start a screen, adding that no screen could be detected. If anyone can offer any help, that would be greatly appreciated.

I too get a segmentation fault
I also get a segmentation fault even though the compile works without any errors:
exports/lib/modules/dri/*.so /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri Segmentation fault (core dumped) Any ideas? Nevermind, I see the problem. Thanks above for the help! (Sorry!) |
Thanks Scoob_e!!
Ur guide worked with my Slack10 box. However, I only got it working for the 2.6.7 kernel. I didn't succeed using the 2.4.26 kernel because I couldn't find any appropriate patches for the agpgart. Thanks again, D. I finally got it working!! An update to Kernel 2.6.27 brought agpgart to life! After that i recompiled Mesa and dri/drm and it worked! :-) |
I got it working after upgrading to xorg. Excellent!!!
But only with Mandrake, I can't get it to work with Libranet (using xfree86 4.3) |
I tried to perform the cvs logins/downloads but nothing happens. Once I enter
Code:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@dri.freedesktop.org:/cvs/dri login The error I recieve is (as of today): Code:
cvs [login aborted]: connect to dri.freedesktop.org(131.252.208.82):2401 failed: Connection timed out |
Are you connected to the internet?
|
this is what i got just after step 5. this is just the end of the process:
Code:
/home/riscphree/3d/Mesa/include/GL/glx.h:295: warning: previous declaration of 'glXGetProcAddress' was here |
have you installed xorg?
|
hehe, of course.
|
now my gnome does not start. :(
any advice on fixing this? |
Works excellent, even for FC3. Only really had to change the xorg.conf to make it work here, as FC3 seems to install DRI, Mesa, etc.
GREAT WORK, and Thank you! |
