  Oops. Turns out the complete i915 module was only added *after* FreeBSD
  6.0 release. You'll have to upgrade to 6-STABLE/6.1-RELEASE (to be
  released very soon now) to get it.
  
  By the way, glxinfo | grep rendering returns no.  
  
  Yes, direct rendering won't work without the drm kernel module.
  
  
  Cheers,
 
 I have recently upgraded to RELENG_6_1 and am still not able to play
 RTCW on my laptop. I do have the i915 module loaded now as well as drm.
  Below is the output from kldstat:

RELENG_6_1 is a security branch, so my update to the DRM in RELENG_6
won't ever be merged there.  Use RELENG_6 instead.

Re: X11 6.9 issue -- options AGPMode and AGPFastWrite

 hello list!
 
 i've just upgraded X11 from 6.8.2 to 6.9.0 and run into the following issue:
 
 after starting x11 for the first time the screen went black and console 
 was inaccessible (i had to reboot). when i tried the generated xorg.conf 
 (`Xorg -configure`) it worked. so i started comparing my old config file 
 with the new one and found out that the following two options i had been 
 using are the root of the problem:
  Option  AGPMode 4   # ++ 2005-02-11 mato
  Option  AGPFastWrite # ++ 2005-02-11 mato
 they just cannot be set both at the same time now.
 and i wonder why.
 and also i wonder which one to comment out and which one to keep (if any 
 at all).

Comment them both out and live a happier life with a more stable
computer.  In my testing (and as far as I know, I'm the only one who has
done performance comparisons with AGPMode), AGPMode 4 provided no
meaningful performance improvement except under contrived circumstances.
AGPFastWrite is the most unstable option ever, and I couldn't benchmark
because it crashes.  We've threatened to just disconnect these options
upstream and not tell anyone, because they're that harmful but people
seem to think they're secret performance sauce that the developers don't
want to give them.

 cd /usr/src/modules/drm
 make obj  make depend  make  make install
 
 One thing I forgot in my last mail: Also make sure you have the
 graphics/dri port installed.

Since he's trying to run RTCW, linux_dri.

  Also, if I don't have GLX support, why does glxgears run?
 
 It runs using the fallback software renderer (which is slow and doesn't
 support many features).

At least my libGL doesn't have a fallback software renderer, and relies
on the server providing GLX.

Re: Problem making xorg-clients on FreeBSD 4.10

 I'm having problems building xorg-clients.
 
 I'm not quite following the instructions in UPDATE, I want to prebuild 
 as much as possible before I delete XFree and then run make install in 
 x11/xorg. I hope this isn't the reason for the problem... :/

It is.

 The problem is I have to get XFree86-4 to build to get gnome2 to build to
 get mozilla to build. Bleh - I tried the pkg_add route but most of the 
 packages required for gnome2 don't exist (mostly Xfree86x 4.3.0-7)
 
 (I used pkg_add -r gnome2)

Try reinstalling your imake-4 and then XFree86-4-libraries would be my
guess.
