User got upgraded to 6.4. Graphical mode video fails.
It's an AMD (nee ATI) RV620 (FirePro 2260).
So I finished upgrading everything, including kmod-fglrx. Based on the xorg.conf's on there, it's been using the fglrx. Now, in Xorg.0.log, it tells me "no supported AMD display adapters were found". I've been on-and-off googling for hours, and can't figure out if the "legacy" kmod-nvidia from elrepo will work: their info *ONLY* lists Radeon cards, and I can't figure out what this damn thing is. Oh, lspci -v tells me it's "ATI device 2343".
Anyone know what this card is like (AMD shows three different models of the same name, and I have no idea which it is, and none uses a Radeon name), and what driver I might use, or do I have to downgrade X....
It is no longer supported.
The current AMD driver [v13.1] ONLY supports Radeon HD 5000 series and above, with the legacy driver [v13.1 legacy] supporting older Radeon HD 2000, HD 3000 or HD 4000 series cards (I assume yours is a 2000 series card) *BUT* the legacy driver does NOT support X server ABI 13 in the version of Xorg shipped with RHEL 6.4. So your card is not supported by AMD as the version of Xorg server in RHEL 6.4 is too new.
That's what I was coming to think - the one thing that had me stopped was what it *was*. Do I understand you to be saying that this is a Radeon HD 2xxx (and why *three* names, two from ATI?)?
Also, it appears that you're saying I need to downgrade his X (all of it?), and remove the kmod-fglrx, and install the legacy (is that the kmod-fglrx93?
Thanks for the quick response - I really need to get his video up....
