Description Adrian Gygax 2003-07-10 04:58:48 UTC
Compiling DRM modules for r200 with recent sources from DRI-CVS (or
xfree-drm-4.3.0-rc5.ebuild) works fine but they don't load.

This seems to be a general problem as there is something about DRI mentioned in
 the changelog for 2.4.21-ac4:
http://fr.linuxtoday.com/developer/2003062702026NWKNDV

Couldn't find anything usful about pte_offset though. (But I'm no kernel hacker...)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compile DRM from recent sources
2. modprobe radeon

Actual Results:  
modprobe radeon produces these errors:

unresolved symbol mmu_cr4_features
unresolved symbol pte_offset

Expected Results:  
The module should load flawlessly

Thank you! I was just trying to pull this stuff out of ac4.

Patch to resolve pte_offset problems

This is pfeifer's patch if you're getting pte_offset unresolved symbols (on
rmap-enabled kernels). It will show up in -r6 along with a DRM update, probably
a 2.5 kernel patch and a few other things this weekend sometime.

ok - the kernel side is in pfeifer-sources-2.4.21_pre3 which is in portage.

xfree-drm side is in testing in xfree-drm-4.3.0-r6, will unmask soon if things work.
Comment 8 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-08-03 02:15:58 UTC
Jay, xfree-drm-4.3.0-r6 is stable so feel free to close if things are to your satisfaction.

closing.
