Not as far as I can tell. The script checks for various dependencies
(git, headers for
the running kernel, the kernel building packages and so on) but I can't
see that it checks
kernel configuration options (assuming that that was what you had in
mind),
Is CONFIG_DRM set in /boot/config-2.6* ?
The Direct Render Manager has to be active for 3D to work. I think 2D
xrender and
XAA should work fine, but I believe that "desktop effects" and compiz
require 3D.
EXA should work, but will likely be *very* slow without DRM/DRI. XV should
work
fine without DRM/DRI, but I am not sure about XVmc.
Do you not use DRM/DRI?
