Summary: Only root:root can do DRI
Product: DRI
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: P3
Component: General
AssignedTo: dri-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
System: PIII 733MHz 512MB RAM
Video card Radeon 7500 AGP
OS: Slackware Linux 10.2
X.org version 6.8.2
I noticed I have 3D hardware acceleration while beeing root and software
acceleration as being a normal user.
I searched in /dev/dri and found
crw-rw--- root root /dev/dri/card0
If I chown root.users /dev/dri/card0 I have 3D hardware accel as normal user.
If I chmod o+rw /dev/dri/card0 also.
But this can be done after X has started (standalone with startx or login from
init 4) becourse at every restart of X the permissions/owner/group of
/dev/dri/card0 get reset to "crw-rw--- root root /dev/dri/card0"
IMHO every user of the system should have 3D accel.
Please look into it.
