what extra firmware for Dell 7470 radeon card?
by destey from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5PYEB)
Hi I just picked up a used Dell 7470 radeon graphics card for my older socket 775 system. There was a webpage that had all the extra firmware files to load but I can't seem to find it anymore. I don't know which firmware .bin's but I think it has Caicos chip. The 2 lines I change in .config for the linux kernel for my juniper card (the one that was in it before) goes like this and it works perfect
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="radeon/JUNIPER_rlc.bin radeon/JUNIPER_smc.bin radeon/JUNIPER_pfp.bin radeon/JUNIPER_me.bin radeon/CYPRESS_uvd.bin"
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR="/lib/firmware"
When I had those lines incorrect years ago, it caused a long delay that I'm seeing again with this new card
I have a guess, not sure if its right.
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="radeon/CAICOS_me.bin radeon/CAICOS_mc.bin radeon/CAICOS_pfp.bin radeon/R600_rlc.bin radeon/R600_me.bin radeon/R700_rlc.bin"
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR="/lib/firmware"
There's a very long blank during startup but eventually it seems to work, but I get this error in dmesg. The line before it is a normal ethernet card initialization msg with a time of about 7 seconds, then the entry below has like 180 seconds post boot (forget the exact, its on another computer)
radeon_dp_aux_transfer_native: 96 callbacks
Anyone know that webpage with all the entries, or what I should put for the config_extra_firmware? Or do I have it correct and something else is up maybe with my kernel config? Thanks in advance- Derek
