GLITN and latest Xfree

[Ivan Porro <pivan@bio.dist.unige.it>]

HI to all,

I'm newbee to this list, and I know I'm going a bit OT 'cause this is not a 
"user support" list. But I'm really in trouble with an Oxygen GVX210 card 
(glint r3 chips) and latest XFree. The trouble is: apparently the card is 
recognized and X running fine, but how can I be sure that hardware 
acceleration is enabled?
In fact, the same program compiled under windows2000 with proper 3dlabs driver 
has better performances (it's a simple wireframe cube with a lot of point 
inside plotted using OpenGL.

thanks in advance

Ivan Porro

XFree86 Version 4.3.0 (built from source)
Release Date: 27 February 2003
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.6
Build Operating System: Linux 2.4.18 i686 [ELF]
Build Date: 10 March 2003

DRI Load section is in my XF86Config-4 is present:

Section "Module"
        Load    "GLcore"
        Load    "bitmap"
        Load    "dbe"
        Load    "ddc"
        Load    "dri"
        Load    "extmod"
        Load    "freetype"
        Load    "glx"
        Load    "int10"
        Load    "pex5"
        Load    "record"
        Load    "speedo"
        Load    "type1"
        Load    "vbe"
        Load    "xie"
EndSection

and the Xfree log file say that:

(II) GLINT: driver for 3Dlabs chipsets: gamma, gamma2, ti_pm2, ti_pm, r4,
        pm4, pm3, pm2v, pm2, pm, 300sx, 500tx, mx, delta
(II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:1
(WW) GLINT: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:0) found
(--) Assigning device section with no busID to primary device
(WW) GLINT: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:2) found
(--) Chipset pm3 found
(WW) System lacks support for changing MTRRs
(II) GLINT(0): direct rendering disabled

I've the device recognized as (lspci):

01:00.0 Co-processor: 3DLabs: Unknown device 000e (rev 01)
01:00.1 Display controller: 3DLabs GLINT R3 (rev 01)
01:00.2 Display controller: 3DLabs GLINT R3 (rev 01)

but glxinfo say that DRI is not enabled, and show fewer GL - GLX extension 
than I think it have to show:
