Direct Rendering with Debian Xorg
I had been using the dri-trunk packages over xfree for a while to enable DRI
on my ATI mach64 clunker. These dri-trunk packages intalled over xfree but
were in fact xorg based but the xorg would not load so I continued with xfree
and it ran fine this way.
I recently went over to Xorg off Sid. Easiest upgrade imaginable. This Xorg
supercedes the dri-trunk packages. I replaced these with xlibmesa and the DRM
off the DRI project's CVS. After minor surgery over gcc version "magic"
conflicts, got the DRM modules to load up fine. Direct rendering does not
work.
Has anyone had success with this and can point me in the right direction. (The
dri-trunk packages are no longer maintained--I even tried putting them back
but it still did not work so something in the Xorg itself?)
