Re: Idiot's DRM/DRI/FB question, tibook

[Thorsten Johannvorderbrueggen <thorsten.johannvorderbrueggen@t-online.de>]

Hello all,

i have a new (Jul05) iBook-G14 with the same problem. I added the line 
but got no dri support:

[tjohann@setoy ~] $ glxinfo | grep render
direct rendering: No
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect

Is there'r no drm support yet?

Any suggestions would be cool!

Bye
 Thorsten
