What to test?

Today's instalment of Fedora Test Day will focus on the radeon driver for ATI Radeon graphics cards.

If you come to this page after the test day is completed, your testing is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test with your graphics card and provide feedback.

Who's available

The following cast of characters will be available for testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...

What's needed to test

  • An ATI Radeon (or FireGL) graphics adapter. To confirm whether you have supporting hardware, run the following command: 
    /sbin/lspci -d 1002: | grep -iq VGA && echo "Join Radeon Fedora Test Day" || echo "Sorry, no Radeon graphics hardware found."
  • Rawhide (tips on installing Rawhide below), or the live CD available for this test day (again see below).
  • FAS Account - you can create an account in 3 minutes if you don't have one. You must also complete the CLA (Contributor License Agreement) in order to enter results into the table.
  • Your hardware profile uploaded to Smolt according to these instructions

How to test?

Update your machine

See the instructions on the Rawhide page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide. Or:

Live Image

Optionally, you may download a non-destructive rawhide live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD.

Latest syslinux package?
Creating a LiveUSB of this rawhide image requires the latest version of syslinux, which is currently available in Rawhide and in the latest Windows liveusb-creator. Users of F10 and below can upgrade to the latest syslinux package using 
yum --enablerepo=rawhide update syslinux
.

Test

Follow each of these test cases:

Multihead test case:

You will need two or more monitors to perform the multihead test.

Report your results

If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to Bugzilla usually for the component xorg-x11-drv-ati. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report, just ask on IRC and we will help you. Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below, following the example results from Adam Williamson as a template. The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one, and the second should be a link to your Smolt hardware profile (see above for a link with instructions on submitting your hardware profile to Smolt). For each test case, if your system worked correctly, simply enter the word PASS. If you had trouble, enter the word FAIL, as a link to the bug report for the failure. If you could not perform one test (for example, you cannot perform the more advanced tests because the basic one fails, or you cannot perform the multihead test as you have only one display), enter the word N/A. In the comments column, you can enter the model name and PCI device ID (vendor ID is usually 1002) of your card, if you know it - you can usually find this information in the output of the command lspci -nn.

Bruno Wolff HW1 PASS UNKNOWN * FAILED ** UNKNOWN *** PASSED N/A **** N/A **** PASSED N/A **** PASSED ***** N/A ATI Technologies Inc RV530GL [FireGL V3400] rev 0. * The gstreamer test appeared to work, but the totem test triggered a bug related to my host controller. ** Method "ApplyConfiguration" with signature "" on interface "org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.XRANDR" doesn't exist. *** startx starts up gnome and gnome triggers the host controller problem (I am using fvwm to get around that) and I need to reboot to get access to the hard disks working again, so I can't try a second startx. On an interesting note the gnome display was inverted, so I am guessing the previous test case assumes you are using gnome. **** This test required gnome which is a no go on this machine. I did try out glxgears in fvwm and it worked. It did freeze when moving windows around but I don't know if that is normal in fvwm. Partial covering did work. ***** The firefox upload dialog also screws up my host controller, so I can't easily upload the file right now, but the file line was "2124238 tests passed of 2124238 total" so I think everything is good.
Bruno Wolff HW2 FAIL N/A N/A N/A N/A FAIL * N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200] rev 1 * This was with nomodeset, since modeset wasn't usable. glxgears eventually locked up the console. Before that happened I moved a terminal window over the glxgears window, but the glxgears output showed through. When I moved the terminal window away from the glxgears window some of the glxgears output (a snapshot, not dynamic output) was copied to the terminal window and moved with it.
