3d acceleration requires 3 parts: - DRI enabled DDX (2d driver) (xorg tree) - 3D driver library (mesa tree) - kernel DRM to provide secure/multiple client access to the hardware (drm tree) There was partially implemented trident support in the DRI cvs tree on one of the branches (although I'm not sure if your chip was supported or not). you'd need to port the DDX changes to the xorg trident driver, get the mesa 3d driver into shape (ajax recently imported the old code to the into mesa) and update the drm.
