Hi All
I have a Celeron 900MHz , 128MB RAM, i815e MOBO PC.
In this I am unable to play TUXRACER. I am pasting the error message:
tuxracer

Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
----------------------------
If I try to play chromium also same error message comes.
I had some problems with my X display about 20 days back which was
corrected
after doing "fsck " on the root file system and re-installing XFree86
from
First CD of RH9.
I am pasting below my XF86Config file:

of
the

# no need to change the default.
# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated
together)
# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the

# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"

# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"

I had commented out all the entries under section "Modules" and
section
"DRI" when I had the X problem. That did not solve the problem,
reinstalling
XFree86 did.
Now I have uncommented them as you can see.
But why the error message keeps coming ? In fact during my earlier
installation of RH9 in he same m/c , I could play Chromium with an FPS
of 47
to 50, now it is crawling.
Can anybody help out in this?
