That's the beauty of Gentoo. If the f
Thank you all for your beautiful help and your patience (my thread is 33

This has been one of the best support I have ever got (much better than many
paid support services).
Thank you!

This is Gentoo. Very little is default here. You either set it
yourself or it doesn't get set.

Finally it works!
I just had to add my user to the 'video' group.
Shouldn't new user be added to such groups by default?
driconf, always says
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
Thank you a lot,

Check /dev/video* en /dev/dri*
Try adding,
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
To your xorg.conf file.
If that doesn't work, take a look into Xorg.0.log.

I'm close to the solution.
If I run glxinfo | grep renderer as root, I get
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Mobile Intel�� GM45 Express Chipset GEM
20090114
while, if I run the same command as a simple user, I get
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Software Ras
More INFO
Running driconf, I see the following message:
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
However, inside the xorg.0.log, I see:
(II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer
(II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_SGI_swap_control and GLX_MESA_swap_control
(II) AIGLX: GLX_EXT_texture_fr
One more thing.
Now, driconf says 'Could not detect any configurable direct-rendering
capable devices. DRIconf will be started in expert mode'.
Before the config changes I did, I never got this message calling driconf

Did you merge mesa again? Did you follow the guide to the letter?

Done. After that I did:
emerge -av xf86-video-intel
killall -1 X
However, performances didn't change much...
x...@localhost ~ $ glxinfo | grep render

Other ideas?

Hi Ward. Thank you for your clarification.
Just to be sure I have undestood right.
The document says:
"
Since 22 Oct 2008, Gentoo switched all ebuilds to the upstream naming:
x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel. The ebuild xf86-video-i810 no longer exists.
To switch, set the VIDEO_CARDS variable to int

Sorry, I read that document after I sent the e-mail.
However (but maybe I've understood wrong), it says that I have to define

Thanks for your help.
I read that document a while ago.
It says I need :

Hi Vasya! Thank for your help!!
xf86-video-intel-2.1.1 is an older version: what do I have to do to switch
to that?
And, after I've switched, how will I switch back to the latest one?

If you're worried about 3D performance, run 'eselect opengl list'
To see if you have a hardware accelerated option, and if so 'eselect opengl set
' will fix that.
If you want more 2D speed, you'll need to
