Thank you, Andreas. It's nice to hear about you again. I think we're on the
way for an stable DRI support for our Mach64 cards.

What I use to do for testing the unstable driver is using a different init
script for the DRI XServer. Something like:

#!/bin/bash
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6-DRI/lib
xinit /home/mteira/bin/xinitdri -- /usr/X11R6-DRI/bin/XFree86

I call this script: XDRI.sh

And  /home/mteira/bin/xinitdri is just an .xinitrc init script for starting
the window manager, something like:

#!/bin/bash
WMANAGER=wmaker
xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap
xrdb ~/.Xresources
if [    "$WMANAGER" = "wmaker" \
        -o "$WMANAGER" = "icewm" \
        -o "$WMANAGER" = "blackbox" \
        -o "$WMANAGER" = "pwm" ]; then
        xconsole -bg black -fg green -geometry 600x150+0+0 -fn 6x10 -file
/dev/xconsole &
        aterm -geometry 80x24+0+180 -sl 500 -bg black -fg yellow -fn fixed &
fi
exec $WMANAGER

In this way, I have a different window manager (WindowMaker) for my 3D tests,
than the one I have for my everyday work (KDE).


BTW, Leif, have you investigated any further on the VT change locks. Perhaps
we have forgot to lock some other function...

And Frank. when do you estimate we could play with your DMA code?

Sorry, but I've been busy at work lately and also thought that it would be
better for me to keep my strength  for the new DMA code.

Go on, Frank!  ;-)
