Summary: Radeon PCI ROM unavailable on Alpha
Product: Platform Specific/Hardware
Version: 2.5
KernelVersion: 2.6.24
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: Alpha
AssignedTo: rth at twiddle.net
ReportedBy: mattst88 at gmail.com
Distribution: Gentoo
Hardware Environment: Alphaserver DS20L, Radeon X1550 PCI
Problem Description:
Access to the VGA BIOS ROM on my Alphaserver DS20L with a Radeon X1550
PCI does not work. The ROM located at /sys/bus/pci/devices/<pciid>/rom
is blank.
Before starting X, I issue the following commands from the said directory.
echo 1 > enable
echo 1 > rom
rom is empty at this point, which causes X to fail to load when
started. See FreeDesktop bug 15699 for X logs using radeon and
radeonhd drivers.
Only after 'priming' the rom file will X (with radeonhd) load correctly. To
prime it, I issue 'cat rom > /dev/null'.
