Re: Bug#738095: xserver-xorg-video-ati: no 2D acceleration because of missing glamor
I've just been bitten by this and had to search a bit to find the
solution. As far as solution, I took ubuntu glamor 0.6 package and
rebuild it on debian, and then I removed the --disable-glamor in the
xserver-xorg-video-ati debian/rules and recompiled.
Unfortunately, you may also need to compile with mesa-10.1-rc1 or git if
you want efficient hardware decoding for video.
At the end vdpauinfo did return what was expected and qvdpautest gave
some good numbers.
And yes without this, on radeon 7000+ you get software rendering only!
