Description Le retraité 2007-09-11 11:18:38 UTC
I know the new xorg-server breaks the previous ABI and so drivers need to be recompiled, I've done so for x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse, but there's no x11-drivers/xf86-video-radeon to rebuild...

cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
(EE) module ABI major version (1) doesn't match the server's version (2)
(EE) Failed to load module "radeon" (module requirement mismatch, 0)
(EE) No drivers available.

Any idea ?

Regards.

Re-close the bug as duplicate if I'm wrong but, bug 191872 says:

module ABI version (1) doesnt match the servers version (2)
failed to load module "fglrx" (module requirement mismatch, 0)

I'm not using the 'fglrx' driver, but the 'radeon' one, I mean not the proprietary driver but the opensource one.

There's nothing you can do about it for the proprietary driver (i.e. wait for ATI to release a new one), but the opensource one might just need to be recompiled.

However, until now, all I had to do to use the opensource radeon driver for my R200 card was to have VIDEO_CARDS="radeon" in /etc/make.conf, but I have no idea what do I need to recompil now to make it works with x11-base/xorg-server-1.4 (as explained in my first message, no x11-drivers/xf86-video-radeon)

Except that it's called x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati; please don't abuse bugzilla for trivial support questions.

Sorry, since 'ati' and 'radeon' are to different driver in xorg.conf, I didn't know they were in the same ebuild. Thanks.
