Hannes, I believe that ATI's latest Linux drivers do support OpenGL2.0, as the following press release from 1/18/06 (RSS feed: http://www.ati.com/online/rss/atilinuxdriver.rss?OTC-rssfeedlinux) indicates: ----------------- Linux Proprietary Driver 8.21.7 Release: x86 and x86_64 variants NEW FEATURES: (1) ATI Linux Driver Installer now 50% smaller. (2) OpenGL 2.0 Support. ISSUES RESOLVED: (1) mode2 option in aticonfig now supported as documented (2) Starting X server when the virtual desktop size is set higher than the largest display mode available for the display device no longer results in fatal server error. 1/18/2006 3:00 PM ----------------- Also, the latest ATI Linux drivers (released 8/18/06) do away with fglrxconfig in favor of aticonfig. Hopefully, a change for the better since fglrx never worked in my dual card setup.

Expect a substantial number of svn commits soon. The merge is not complete, yet, but almost. You might be interested to try out OpenGL support, which I've committed to svn a minute ago. You need the patches that I attach here to enable it. One of them will find its way into svn later. * If you have complete OpenGL 2.0 support (currently only available from NVidia), apply only opengl-configure.diff. * If you don't have complete OpenGL 2.0 support (e.g. MESA software rendering), you can add both patches. But this will cripple most OpenGL-enabled effects; they don't produce output or whatever. But at least the Dissolve transition will work. Apply the patches with patch -p1 < xxx.diff. Run ./configure --enable-opengl You have to choose X11-GL in the Preferences to enable OpenGL. Also read the new manual about additional constraints (basically, don't mix hardware and software effects). Don't report bugs. Wait until the merge is complete. You can meet me at #cinelerra on IRC in 9 hours from now if you need help. -- Hannes _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list [email protected] https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
