Re: [gentoo-user] 3d rendering with dri radeon
While the two kernels are the same version from portage they have of course different EXTRAVERSION. For the kernel I compiled for dri I simply added '-dri' to EXTRAVERSION. So when running uname -r it yielded 2.6.15-r1-dri. The previous kernel which I am running now lacks the '-dri'.

Re: [gentoo-user] 3d rendering with dri radeon
As I've read in http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_DRI_with_ATi_Open-Source_Drivers there's no way to make it work for a Radeon above 9100. Oh !! mine is Mobility Radeon 9700, if I want DRI through open source drivers, I've no way to do it? Bye, Rafael Fernández López. pgp9zokH8act6.pgp Description: PGP signature
