Hi,
I am using Debian Lenny on a PC. I am trying to figure out why direct rendering is not working so upon giving "glxinfo" command I get:
# glxinfo > glxinfo.txt
name of display: :0.0
display: :0  screen: 0
direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting

What driver do you use?

LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.2

Yeesh.  That's old.

$ glxinfo | head -n5
name of display: :0.0
display: :0  screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes
server glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
server glx version string: 1.4


server glx extensions:
.............................
.............................
So I set:
# export LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose
and then gave the command again:
# glxinfo > glxinfo-debug.txt
However, setting to verbose mode did not produce any extra output:
# diff glxinfo.txt glxinfo-debug.txt

me@haggis:~$ LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo > foo
me@haggis:~$ glxinfo > bar
me@haggis:~$ dir foo bar
-rw-r--r-- 1 me me 27111 2010-03-25 19:31:10 bar
-rw-r--r-- 1 me me 27111 2010-03-25 19:31:04 foo

Happens to me too.

What did I do wrong?
Thanks
