I don't know whether the IIC has the Pro feature set (suspect
not). If it does, the Mach64 driver of Utah-GLX works fine for
me.
You might want to have a look at recent DRI development. I'm
following this already for a while and it appears to me that the
guys got quite far with implementing DRI for Mach64,
..thanks. Any chance it is available as a rpm, or a tarball
that will come out as an ok rpm, out of a 'rpm -ta '?
I have no idea. Last time I touched an rpm was about a year ago.
As I remember, I carefully used a long pole that had an alien
on the end ... what do those command line switches mean ?
..build rpm from this tarball. If it barfs, or a cvs commit warrants,
'rpm -e' it, and try another, say 'rpm -ba ', as in build that darn rpm
from the tarball using the '.spec'-file I fixed. Length of pole is
discretionary. ;-)
..snippets of 'man 8 rpm':
BUILDING PACKAGES:
rpm {-ba|-bb|-bp|-bc|-bi|-bl|-bs} [build-options] SPECFILE ...
rpm {-ta|-tb|-tp|-tc|-ti|-tl|-ts} [build-options] TARBALL ...
rpm {--rebuild|--recompile} SOURCEPKG ...
...
BUILD OPTIONS
The general form of an rpm build command is
rpm {-bSTAGE|-tSTAGE} [build-options] FILE ...
The argument used is -b if a spec file is being used to build the
package and -t if rpm should look inside of a (possibly compressed) tar
file for the spec file to use. After the first argument, the next
character (STAGE) specifies the stages of building and packaging to be
done and is one of:
-baBuild binary and source packages (after doing the %prep, %build,
and %install stages).
...etc. Enables use of /usr if /usr/local chokes like: ;-)
[arnt@lana http-install]$ df -h
