Comment 5 BRULE Herman 2010-08-16 07:07:33 UTC
it's good? With old kernel it's try well too switch to kms, not with this kernel.
Comment 6 Alex Deucher 2010-08-16 07:26:34 UTC
Ok, for some reason the kernel is not able to access the vbios rom while the the ums driver is able to.  Did kms used to work on your card?  If so, which kernel?
Comment 7 BRULE Herman 2010-08-16 07:38:28 UTC
I have try 2.6.34 branch, and this kernel what I try is the kernel 2.6.35-git14 (gentoo) on core2duo linux x86_64
Comment 8 BRULE Herman 2010-08-22 23:29:32 UTC
Other behavior, for have 3D acceleration I need activate in the kernel:
Device Drivers -> Graphics support -> VGA Arbritration
Device Drivers -> Graphics support -> Laptop Hybrid Graphics - GPU switching support
And disable:
Device Drivers -> Graphics support -> DRM -> kms for radeon

Mass closure: This bug has been untouched for more than six years, and is not
obviously still valid. Please reopen this bug or file a new report if you continue to experience issues with current releases.
