I am having some trouble with X11 DRI on my AMD64 system. It works fine the first time after a reboot (I have xdm in the default runlevel so get a graphical login) but after logging off and back on, all I get is software rendering. I use x11-base/x11-drm-20051223 (compiled against my current kernel, obviously, and the radeon module getting loaded at boot time), and gentoo-sources-2.6.15-r1. I'm running a framebuffer console and use the "radeon" Xorg driver. After logging off and back on, /dev/dri/card0 is still 0:0 666, and my xorg.conf says DRI is mode 0666, but all I get from within an xterm is this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ glxinfo | grep -i direct
direct rendering: No
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $
...with OpenGL performance that can be expected from software
rendering. I don't see anything in /var/log/Xorg.0.log that would
indicate an error condition, and it seems to say that direct rendering
gets initialized just fine. So why doesn't it get used?
Any suggestions on where to look would be appreciated.
