i) what version of xfree86? ii) what video card? I've an ATI Rage Mobility with 8Mb on board, and it simply won't do hardware GL with my X (Debian stable/Woody 4.2.1-3.woody3). If I cared enough, I could install a backport of xfree86 4.3.x and try that. I don't care enough. If your card will do hardware GL, dri.sourceforge.net is supposed to speak of the capabilities of your card. My /var/log/XFree86.0.log also mentions http://gatos.sf.net Of course, you could check with xfree86.org as well. As for X.org and freedesktop.org, I've never heard of either of them but could that be due to the reported fork in xfree86 people were talking about a month ago? Licencing problems, yada yada. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
