The dmesg you posted is with 3.2, it's a rather old kernel, also there is no mention to radeon kernel module so it seems your kernel build does not have either radeon or kms enabled. You need to update to a newer kernel with kms enabled, it's the only way you can use the radeon driver with xserver 1.14 If you don't want to upgrade kernel then you can't use xserver 1.14 with anything else than vesa for this GPU (unless you write code yourself).</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
