That's it! :D ~$ glxinfo | grep dir direct rendering: Yes >From my point of view the problem was that emerge -vp x11-drm gives no indication of any use flags being present: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# emerge -vp x11-drm These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild R ] x11-base/x11-drm-20051223 VIDEO_CARDS="ati -i810 -mga -nv -savage -sis -tdfx -via" 0 kB Total size of downloads: 0 kB I did try with both VIDEO_CARDS="ati" and VIDEO_CARDS="radeon" in make.conf but neither gave the radeon kernel module (without any of them it wouldn't compile though). But adding video_cards_ati to USE flags solved the problem. ~# grep drm /etc/portage/package.use x11-base/x11-drm video_cards_ati Do you think this is a bug in the ebuild? -- Bo Andresen -- [email protected] mailing list
