>XFree86 Version 4.0.3 / X Window System [SNIP] The Xrender extension is not supported on all hardware in 4.0.[23] unfortunately. This is an often reported 'bug' in our bugzilla as well but isn't actually a bug. It's just a harmless warning telling you you cannot use RENDER. I am not entirely certain, however I think 4.1.0 supports Render on most if not all hardware now so you might consider trying it out. Hope this helps.
