It's on our snapshot tree, and the tdfx_dri driver is not compiling. It's a known issue, documented in the spec file (the source rpm) and in our bugzilla (distro.conectiva.com.br/bugzilla). The problem is related to libglide, and we are working on it. As a workaround, you can download the binaries from dri.sf.net and overwrite your libglide files. Or you can wait for: a new release of our XFree development packages that solves the problem, our official release, or you can even make a patch and send it to us :) []'s - Ademar -- Ademar de Souza Reis Jr. Conectiva S/A - http://distro.conectiva.com.br "Unfortunately, no-one can be told what Linux is.. you have to see it for yourself." ^[:wq! ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
Re: [Xpert]Voodoo 4 4500 AGP
Try going to http://dri.sourceforge.net and going to the Download page and getting DRIsetup-i386. It's a utility I was working on a while ago that should step you through the right configuration for DRI. Let me know how it goes. Alan.

You need that library. XFree's libGL is just an intermediary, it uses that library to talk to 3Dfx boards to do direct rendering. > (II) TDFX(0): [DRI] installation complete < > (==) TDFX(0): Direct rendering enabled< > What it's wrong, what else do I need ?

First, do 'ldd /usr/X11R6/bin/glxinfo' and make sure it's linking the correct libGL. Second, as Michel said, run 'LIBGL_DEBUG=1 glxinfo' and see if it spits out any errors. You may need to look at /dev/dri/* and see if the permissions are set correctly for you to access the DRI devnode. If not, 'man XF86Config' is your friend. Look for info on the DRI section.

For some reason when Conectiva released the version 4.1.0 of XFree, it didn't release the package that has this driver. Is there some way to compile only this library without the need to recompile the entire XFree ?

It's what libGL uses for the hardware rendering, so yes, it's still very much needed. :) That said, I know next to nothing about Conectiva but my impression is that it's a fairly reasonable distribution so I'd expect them to provide means to find out which package contains it.
