using ubuntu 7.10 and fedora 8 xserver-xorg 1.3 ati 6.7.192 radeon mobility 9700 64MB the Gart Size is automatically put to 8MB for my video card. this prevents running games with compiz enabled. *********************************WARN_ONCE********************************* File r300_vertexprog.c function valid_dst line 333 Output 3 not used by fragment program *************************************************************************** *********************************WARN_ONCE********************************* File radeon_mm.c function radeon_mm_alloc line 216 Ran out of GART memory (for 1048576)! Please consider adjusting GARTSize option. *************************************************************************** setting the GartSize to 64 fixes the problem. Is it possible to automatically put the GartSize to a decent value?
Not until we get a new memory manager support for radeon into place. it might be practical to make r300 cards get at least 16-32MB maybe, but this is memory we allocate and is wasted for users who don't need it.
Ok, thank you for the explanation. Is the memory manager in the near future todo list?
This has at least partly been fixed by commit 5b5441f8cc119db0d1e03dd35bd06015a26270dd (Increase default GART size to 32MB on >=R300)
