I have the same issue. I'm not using your binaries however I've compiled the kernel module and the Xorg driver and made the relevant Xorg.conf changes, but when loading the module I get the infamous "lv1_gpu_memory_allocate failed" error and a black screen on startx. How have you got round this on firmware 2.10?
Thanks. |

This is a different driver not using RSX features but SPEs to do the xv and EXA acceleration.
Look at unsolo's project for more informations about it :)

He hasn't. Read his post. It only works on firmware version less than 2.10. |

Dear Akta77:
The kernel 2.6.22 rev 52 was released for about 1 month, but there is no further update of ps3rsxdriver for this rev presently. Can you update the ps3rsx driver for rev 52?

Dear Akta77:
Thanks for the update again. I had bought another 40GB model to upgrade FW and play DMC4. The 60 GB model have replaced my PC now. As you know, too many trojan, virus and worms made the Intel family computers very dangerous to surf the web. My credit card was once hacked on the internet, and the bank guys informed me to exchange me a new card, sigh...
Using PS3 makes me very happy not to worrying about being hacked or something...
Best Regards |

I'm using a PS3 80G with firmware 1.80, and followed d-range's instruction for Gentoo.
The ps3rsx.ko kernel module loads fine:
| Code: |
$ dmesg|grep rsx
ps3rsx: PS3 RSX access module, 1.0.0
ps3rsx: reserved XDR memory is @c000000000d00000, len 18874368

ps3rsx: remapped XDR apperture at c000000000d00000 size 18432kB to RSX
|
and the ps3 driver for Xorg also loads fine:
| Code: |

But my problem is that no acceleration would work for me! If I enable Composite in Xorg.conf, then my entire screen would appear scrambled (random color dots everywhere) in xfce4. So I had to disable it.
I tried mplayer -vo xv, it works, but I can't tell if anything is accelerated.
What could be wrong here?
[Edit]: I must add that libps3rsx works for me, and I can display the troll in 3D. So clearly it's not an issue of rsx not working, but somehow xorg can't make use of it. |

ok, problem solved after I re-installed 32-bit userland instead of the 64-bit I was using. It seems that Xorg's fbdev has broken composite support in 64-bit. Users trying this RSX driver must be aware.
It seems Gentoo won't allow running 64-bit binaries in 32-bit userland, but to have WPA encryption for wireless 64-bit wireless-tools must be used because 32-bit is broken. Oh, well... |

Does this mean that the rsx driver works for fw > 2.10? |

I think the problem is the same, I should have a 64 bit userland (I don't know, cause I didn't even know what is a userland...), but here is my question :
I have a lot of artifacts when I move a window on firefox for example, but if I execute xcompmgr, all is ok, so I though 2D acceleration graphics was ok.
But, if I execute a little game like superTux for example, it don't work at all... but, if 2D graphics were ok, it should run fluently, don't he ? |

Great work on this.
But I kind of... fubared my ps3 and installed firmware 2.10 and was wondering if there still was any development to make it work? |

Nope...Don't think so :(
Anyway, as many of us, i also had to switch tu fw > 2.4x.
Only hope will result on unsolo's team work.

I'm looking to install the accelerated xorg driver in the latest Ubuntu. Anyone know if it's available somewhere? I'm using 2.6.28-6-powerpc64-smp. Nevermind, I compiled from source. Althought I can't get it working. I will try YDL.
Thanks. |

|
|
Hi guys
After 2.10 the RSX 3d part doesnt really work bu i spendt some time looking into using the pre defined 2d objects to make a faster more convinient driver.
In order to do so I need a dump of the objects from ramin (last 4 mb of the vram)
anyone capable of providing me with that dump file from a ps3 pre 2.10 prior to the ps3rsx driver overwriting the content?

| First step would be to publish the simpliest and easiest source code producing that dump at the exact moment you want. That way you will get many responses on many configs (I will be glad to dump it on Pal 40gb 2.01 and Ntsc 60gb -fw version much older-). |

Hi again :). Does this mean that you're working on completing the accelerated SPU driver for X?
I loaned out an old Ubuntu PS3 to a friend about a year and a half ago. I'm going to find out whether it's still got a pre-2.10 firmware installed. If so, I can run a program if you've got one to dump the objects you need. |

Well yes i am also looking at more spu stuff .
However this was simply so we can make things like ps3vram driver some day.
perhaps a GPU vga framebuffer or something that doesnt use 9MB of XDR ram

I have a PS3 US NTSC with FW 1.36, it has YDL 5 installed, i could set it up, to do some tests if anyone wants me to do it, but im not really sharp using linux.
The other option is that i could set it up so you can use it via Rdesktop, the problem is that i have no Public IP, if someone knows how to do it this way just tell. |

Where do you publish your work? |
