Re: XFree86 4 and vmware / DGA

[Richard Ayotte <rich.ayotte@home.com>]

Vmware 2.0.3 works fine on my Woody system, full screen and in a window. I
didn't have to do anything to my X configuration to get it working either.

I've got Matrox G200 and I'm using the 2.4.0test10 kernel with DRM/DRI.

What does the log say?
