[Bug 874132] Re: No 3D nor Unity using a Radeon Mobility card

 

Owen Savill, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12.1

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

** Description changed:

  I have a ThinkPad with an ATI Radeon Mobility card. This used to work
  great with 10.04 but fails with 11.04 and 11.10. Not sure at what point
  it broke since I didn't use 10.10. I'll post more information as I get
  it.
  
  Currently the Xorg log doesn't show any errors with the DRM / DRI / GLX
  modules and the kernel appears to have loaded the required modules but
  I'll double check this. If I use the "ati" or "radeon" driver, which I
  believe are the same anyway, X comes up but has no 3D. glxgears reports
  about 10FPS. Using the "frglx" driver, which I believe is ATI's driver,
  exactly the same happens but glxgears crashes!
  
  I'm not sure what packages this involves, I've just come to Ubuntu from Mandriva  and I'm not yet familiar with the DEB package management. I'll get more information to you ASAP.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a ThinkPad with an ATI Radeon Mobility card. This used to work
  great with 10.04 but fails with 11.04 and 11.10. Not sure at what
  point it broke since I didn't use 10.10. I'll post more information as
  I get it.

  Currently the Xorg log doesn't show any errors with the DRM / DRI /
  GLX modules and the kernel appears to have loaded the required modules
  but I'll double check this. If I use the "ati" or "radeon" driver,
  which I believe are the same anyway, X comes up but has no 3D.
  glxgears reports about 10FPS. Using the "frglx" driver, which I
  believe is ATI's driver, exactly the same happens but glxgears
  crashes!

  I'm not sure what packages this involves, I've just come to Ubuntu from Mandriva  and I'm not yet familiar with the DEB package management. I'll get more information to you ASAP.
