Hiya there,
    HAve installed 7.1 on a fresh athlon 650 asus k7v 128 mem voodoo 3
3000 AGP.
    I am having difficulties in getting the voodoo to run with hardware
acceleration. Runs with the generic voodoo driver fine :)
    Have been following th DRI doc on dri.sourceforge.net. However i
have found that the vanilla install of 7.1 whilst it does have xf 4,
does not seem to have the required mesa 3.3 libraries.
    The x server logs are all aok - i can see the required glx and dri
drivers loading and 3dfx - also can see vgahw loading - the only problem

is that Direct Rendering is disabled in the log.
This occurs at 2 points :

after
setting up tile stipple and cache
tdfx (0) backing store enabled
tdfx (0) silken mouse enabled
tdfx (0) Direct Rendering Disabled

and then a few more lines down also - it boots into x fine.

If i then do a glinfo ( the dri doc says glxinfo but i guess that's cos
it refers to mesa 3.3   ) and
glx
sgi-glx
xfree86-dri

have all loaded.

I then pop a xdpyinfo to check that all visuals are 16 bit - yes.

So my diagnosis would be that i need mesa 3.3 ?

Suggested further steps to get hardware accel working would be muchly
appreciated...
