since this is a wishlist item for an old graphics chipset that doesn't
appear likely to get solved any time soon, I think we should drop the
release nomination for it. The bug should stay open though; looks like
it's still got activity and is still a valid bug.
** Changed in:
Your hint seems to have brought me one step further. I compiled both
modules successfully, rebooted, and now have some lines in the Xorg.log
that indicate that DRI should work -
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is 8, (OK)
drmOpenByBusid: Searching for BusID
Unfortunately, even with working DRI you won't be seeing any desktop
effects. Those effects require very specific off-screen rendering
functionality of which Mach64 cards are not capable. You will, however, see
a fairly drastic boost in more 'general' OpenGL functionality.
Your situation brings
Just a tip for those wanting to build DRM modules, the easy-drm-modules-
installer script on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgOnTheEdge might be
handy.

I may be off on the dependencies (only the Linux kernel headers, GCC make
stuffs, and git, I believe), but you should be able to get by in Feisty and
Hardy with minimal building from sources. From what I can tell nothing
needs to be compiled except mach64.ko, and drm.ko needs a recompilation.

Matt Hoy was right, I tried the Mach64 script twice and on both

to restore a working Feisty Fawn. As with an earlier poster, I also have

You needs three things:

--enable-dri
- backported
The reason you won't see it in Gutsy is that Mach64's DRM module is not
within the vanilla kernel sources. You can confirm this by checking

the version you are compiling is geared towards either x.org 6.9 or 7.0, the
newer versions (used in 7.04 and such) are for x.org 7.2. you could search
around at freedesktop.org for a list of things that have changed in the
architecture, as well as specifics for the mach64 driver.
