I'm afraid not. Someone posted about such a system on dri-devel recently, and he couldn't get it to work with various ChipIds, the driver failed in a very basic area like FIFO handling IIRC. Then there's also the VRAM issue Vladimir mentioned, so the driver most definitely needs to be adapted for those integrated chipsets. Maybe one of the patches from ATI which Mike mentioned would address this? -- Earthling Michel D�nzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
