DATE TIME WHERE
Wed Apr 14, 2010 ALL DAY #fedora-test-day
Arriving after the date above?
If you come to this page after the test day is completed, your testing of Radeon is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test Radeon with your graphics card and provide feedback. If you are visiting after the release of Fedora 13, please wait for the next Radeon test day.

What to test?[edit]

Today's instalment of Fedora Test Day will focus on the radeon driver for ATI/AMD 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[edit]

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

What's needed to test[edit]

  • 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."
  • An updated Fedora 42 pre-release, or the special live image (see below)
  • Your hardware profile uploaded to Smolt according to these instructions

How to test?[edit]

Update your machine[edit]

If you're running Fedora 42, make sure you have all the current updates for it installed, using the update manager. If you have any problems running the test, please also install these updated builds from Koji and re-test before reporting a failure:

  1. kernel-2.6.33.2-43.fc13
  2. mesa-7.8.1-1.fc13
  3. xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.13.0-1.fc13

Or you can use a live image:

Live image[edit]

Optionally, you may download a non-destructive Fedora 42 live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD.

Test[edit]

Follow each of these test cases:

Multihead test case:

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

Optional extended OpenGL test cases (some of these will require you to at least move around in games):

These will provide more detailed testing of 3D functionality. Please file bugs for any failures you find if running these tests.

Report your results[edit]

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. Follow the instructions on this page to ensure you include sufficient information in the report. Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below, following the example results from Example user 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, with a footnote indicator, and put a link to the bug report in the comments column (as in the example line). 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.

Long comments[edit]

  1. ↑ After disabling multi-head (disabling external VGA monitor), laptop display does not return back to native resolution (1400x1050) automatically.
  2. ↑ Shows garbage for a few seconds just before login screen, but everything works. If using "nomodeset" parameter it reboots just after showing login screen.
  3. ↑ XVideo: Full-screen mode not possible on right-hand display, but fine on the left-hand one. Video is ok if the player window is on the left half of the right display, but blanks when moved to the right half (border could be around 2048 pixels from the left margin of the spanned desktop).
  4. ↑ Was logged into second user "test" from fast user switching. Did VT to F2 fine but when going back to F1 was on the logged in display of "liveuser" (should have been "test")
  5. ↑ In the Totem window, the video playback preview disappears when paused, but all playback, seek, skip, etc. work normally and have no problems.
  6. ↑ The first suspension works fine; if I try to suspend the system again, Fedora switches to console, the system doesn't respond any more and it's impossible to wake it up. But it looks like this failure depends on the kernel (see RHBZ #583065).
  7. ↑ xvideo: When pause the ogg video in totem, about 20% of the image, on the left side, is missing/black. Image comes back on play. Only in windowed mode.
  8. ↑ Boots to splash screen and stays there unless you press ESC to see boot messages and then you get an X Login window... Note using live USB system
