Re: [Dri-users] dri, freebsd & radeon 8500

I don't know any thing about BSD, but I would guess that the kernel module is not setup properly.

1. Make sure dmesg reports the card is found, ther should be something like this in the source.

drm_chipinfo_t DRM(devicelist)[] = {
        {0x1002, 0x4C57, 1, "ATI Radeon LW Mobility 7 (AGP)"},
        {0x1002, 0x4C59, 1, "ATI Radeon LY Mobility 6 (AGP)"},
        {0x1002, 0x4C5A, 1, "ATI Radeon LZ Mobility 6 (AGP)"},
        {0x1002, 0x5144, 1, "ATI Radeon QD (AGP)"},
        {0x1002, 0x5145, 1, "ATI Radeon QE (AGP)"},
        {0x1002, 0x5146, 1, "ATI Radeon QF (AGP)"},
        {0x1002, 0x5147, 1, "ATI Radeon QG (AGP)"},
        {0x1002, 0x514c, 1, "ATI Radeon QL 8500 (AGP)"},
        {0x1002, 0x5157, 1, "ATI Radeon QW 7500 (AGP)"},
        {0x1002, 0x5159, 1, "ATI Radeon QY VE (AGP)"},
        {0x1002, 0x515A, 1, "ATI Radeon QZ VE (AGP)"},
        {0, 0, 0, NULL}
};

Make sure your chip ID is in this list.  I'v been told that devfs is working for the BSD drm.

2. Check the device nodes (mknod) ect, thay should have Major 226(? use the source), and Minor 0
(or "card%d").
