Hi,
~
after downloding the iso and verifying it was OK using knoppix 5.1.1,
while trying to boot gentoo, I got:
~
XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) o XServer ":0.0"
after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining
~
I am trying to boot gentoo livecd:
~
Linux version 2.6.19-gentoo-r5 (root@kagome) (gcc version 4.1.1
(Gentoo 4.1.1-r3))
~
on a
~
CPU0: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ stepping 02
Total of 1 processors activated (1996.07 BogoMIPS).
~
I read online that this error happens because X does not support
RADEON cards
~
The stanzas on my dmesg output that may relate to this problem may
be:
~
initialized device: /dev/synth, node ( MAJOR 10, MINOR 25 )
vesafb: framebuffer at 0xd0000000, mapped to 0xf8880000, using 3072k,
total 65536k
vesafb: mode is 1024x768x16, linelength=2048, pages=41
vesafb: protected mode interface info at c000:534c
vesafb: pmi: set display start = c00c53ba, set palette = c00c53f4
vesafb: pmi: ports = cc10 cc16 cc54 cc38 cc3c cc5c cc00 cc04 ccb0 ccb2
ccb4
vesafb: scrolling: redraw
vesafb: Truecolor: size=0:5:6:5, shift=0:11:5:0
Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48
fb0: VESA VGA frame buffer device
~
What can I do to solve this problem?
~
knoppix 5.1.1 used this type of video card without any problems but I
did find a lot of ** RADEON ... messages on the screen when I was
shutting it down
~
Any cheat codes I could use to make Gentoo use this card?
~
Thanks

You might try passing an option to the kernel of the LiveCD ( as described
here:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/2004.3/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=2 ):
agpgart loads agpgart (use if you have graphic problems,lockups)
or even better: use the command line manual install.
If gentoo is properly installed then emerging the ATI drivers should fix the
problem.
emerge x11-drivers/ati-drivers
(no guarantees: I have a NVidia video card). |

I don't have a live cd or dvd to test with, but isn't gentoo-nofb a kernel
option? I'd try that and if that fails, look for "vesa" as a boot option
for the kernel. If that fails, just force a boot into text mode and make
your own x config file...
You must have a really odd Radeon video hardware, as it has worked well in
th past for me on a number of 8500 and close relatives.
Cheers.
