Only 32MiB of the actual 64MiB video RAM gets recognized by X.org 6.8.2 with the radeon driver, so that I can't get DRI on my dual head laptop + external LCD setup. I don't ever remember getting all 64MiB recognized on earlier X11 versions, but I'm not certain of this. All 64MiB is recognized under Windows XP. Specs: IBM Thinkpad A31p with ATI Mobility FireGL 7800 M7, Gentoo 2005.1 GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.15-gentoo-r1, gentoo x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r6 package
Created attachment 4817 [details] Xorg.0.log Note DRI failure (line 859/860) where 40500kiB is requested, but only 32768kiB available (line 551).

Created attachment 4818 [details] xorg.conf I use mergedfb for dual display.
Can you try with 7.0 and the radeon driver from current X.org CVS ? Also make sure you use the kernel DRM from CVS HEAD as well.
This is not a DRI problem btw
Ping! Any update on this issue Jonas?
Closing this due to the lack of activity from the bug submitter. If the tips previously mentioned in this bug didn't help, please reopen!
Now only 32MiB of the 64MiB is recognized under Windows XP, so I'm guessing that I have an evolving hardware problem (hopefully I won't lose even more video memory). Perhaps half the video memory died between the time I had previously checked it in Windows and the time I observed the memory halving in Windows, though I'd swear I'd checked both Windows and the GNU/Linux X server memory about the same time. But at this point I feel that it's best to treat this a hardware issue, and I'll withdraw my bug submission. (BTW, I had tried to compile the CVS version of X but failed after some struggle for a few hours. Fortunately this compiling issue is now moot.)
(In reply to comment #8) > memory). Perhaps half the video memory died between the time I had previously > checked it in Windows and the time I observed the memory halving in Windows, Oops, that should read "Perhaps half the video memory died between the time I had previously checked it in Windows and the time I observed the memory halving in **LINUX**". Sorry.
