RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - laric - 2013-10-03 (2013-10-03, 18:51)locomot1f Wrote: i just get a whole lot of tearing... Well it works fine on my a6-3500 which is alot slower... Did you forget to enable vsync? Got any sample video that is tearing? RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - theslime - 2013-10-03 Great guide! Is there any way to get a similar minimal install without using the Raring mini.iso? I'm asking becaue I'm a victim of this ancient and still-unfixed bug, and thus can't install the minimal version of Ubuntu without a convoluted workaround (that will break again with every future kernel update). According to the bug report, most other non-Ubuntu minimal systems are also affected since it's a Linux kernel bug, and I seem to remember Ubuntu Server suffering from the same (although I could be wrong, I only tried the mini.iso this time). Could one go the opposite route? Paring down Xubuntu/Lubuntu to a pseudo-minimal install after the fact? Or could I just go for the existing XBMCbuntu and update kernel and remove fglrx? My current system (the XBMCbuntu based on 12.04 LTS) was unaffected by the bug when I installed it. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2013-10-03 In general: yes. You can for example use Lubuntu 13.04 64 bit installation, but then skip the /etc/init/xbmc.conf as this will interfer with your login manager. The rest should be straight forward. The only reason I started with a minimal iso is, that some think they have to use unity ;-) and complain about vsync later on. Edit: If you choose xbmcbuntu, which is 32 bit - you cannot install the linked kernel. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - theslime - 2013-10-03 Thanks for the quick response! I'll try Lubuntu 64 bit then. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - goldbär - 2013-10-03 Hello, I think I have a problem with my vdpau Code: vdpauinfo Which package is mising? When I try to install nvidia-current aptitude wants to remove two packages. I said "n". Code: sudo aptitude install nvidia-current fyi Code: lspci | grep -i radeon Edit: I removed the two packages with "sudo apt-get autoremove" But which nvidia-package is missing? RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2013-10-03 _don_t install any nvidia binary blob - that is 100% wrong. You are probably missing: Code: sudo apt-get install libg3dvl-mesa vdpauinfo linux-firmware RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - bibibo - 2013-10-03 Hello, i have still a problem with my VGA. Could someone help me ? Code: xbmc@XBMC-NAS:~$ lspci | grep -i radeon Code: xbmc@XBMC-NAS:~$ vdpauinfo RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2013-10-03 DISPLAY=:0 vdpauinfo Please, use basic linux knowledge when typing commands :-) and provide the logs that I requested in the first post. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - bibibo - 2013-10-03 I am sorry. Linux is not very friendly for me. Code: xbmc@XBMC-NAS:~$ DISPLAY=:0 vdpauinfo RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2013-10-03 "and provide all the logs that I requested in the first post". RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - aix85 - 2013-10-03 Have the same problem as bibibo. Code: xbmc@htpc:~$ vdpauinfo I also removed fglrx before following youre guide. http://paste.ubuntu.com/6189636/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/6189637/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/6189638/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/6189640/ RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2013-10-03 Revove your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and remove nomodeset from /etc/default/grub and run sudo update-grub afterwards It is all full of fglrx traces. Do this and post dmesg | pastebinit again. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - bibibo - 2013-10-03 here are my logs http://paste.ubuntu.com/6189658/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/6189660/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/6189663/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/6189678/ RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2013-10-03 @bibibo: For you even the kernel radeon driver is not loaded. I think it is blacklisted by an old fglrx installation - Start a new installation following the howto on page 1. Ressurecting a broken install is not topic of this thread. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - bibibo - 2013-10-03 Okay. I understand. Thanks |
