Greets all,

Linux-mandrake 8.1 , kernel 2.4.18
PIII 
ati rage pro - mach64.

On the above setup i can get hardware acceleration with the Xfree 3.3.6
that came with my distro via GLX. I built Xfree 4.2 from the mandrake
8.2 src rpms because i read that the support for my card was better with
4.2 than with the 4.1 which came with my distro.

However, having just tried to play Chromium (
http://www.reptilelabour.com/software/chromium/ ), i realise that i am
still only getting this acceleration with 3.3.6. A quick google lead me
to read this :http://utah-glx.sourceforge.net/faq.html , and now I am
faultering with ignorance. Do I need to compile Xfree4.2 with DRI
enabled?

regards, Jordan.


ps - for what it is worth, running XConfigurator offers me XFree3.3.6
with hardware acceleration, or Xfree4.1 without ( ie it mistakes 4.2 for
4.1...)
