Re: Little advice for AA



Same issue here...opening any QT app (in my case licq - not running
KDE 2.1 yet ;) ) produces:

Xlib:  extension "RENDER" missing on display ":0.0"

No AA. =( In all other respects, the app works fine.  It just seems
that the unstable QT app packages are built to support RENDER, but
somehow the ati driver in unstable either hasn't caught up, or we're
missing something...

My info:

- tracking unstable, updated every 48-72 hrs
- XFree86 4.0.2
- ati driver (rage mobility 8mb): (from /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/)

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        38636 Feb 22 00:09 ati_drv.o

- /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrender.a is present:

-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        17006 Feb 22 00:13 libXrender.a

Now...should there be a corresponding extension in
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions? Is there a non-standard package
that needs to be installed for all the pieces to work correctly
together? (I've already tried the basics...freetype2, freetype2-dev,
upgrading qt (I think it's at 2.3 or something in unstable now...),
etc... no dice.)
