Hi
a few days ago I'm trying to operate a card
Technologies Inc R200 BB [Radeon All in Wonder 8500DV]
Use Debian squeeze
I managed to run the ati-driver-installer-8.38.6-4 and generated
x86.x86_64.run
packages. deb and dpkg install.
After having generated this run
but when I run glxinfo | grep render me back
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting
LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
GLX_ATI_pixel_format_float, GLX_ATI_render_texture
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R200 (R200 4242) 20090101
x86/MMX/SSE2 TCL DRI2
the xorg.conf configuration file
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen 0 "aticonfig-Screen[0]" 0 0
InputDevice "Generic Keyboard"
InputDevice "Configured Mouse"
Option "AIGLX" "true"
EndSection
..this works with the radeon driver.
ATI/AMD quit supporting your card many years ago.

On the other hand I tried to convert and install the 2 files the free
and not free from ATI and I could not.
fglrx64_4_3_0-8.28.8-1.x86_64.rpm and
fglrx64_6_8_0-8.28.8-1.x86_64.rpm
Thanks in advance
