Hi all- Read a long-ish thread on this subject from 2003, but I'm still in the dark about using xlibmesa-DRI with the ATI graphics on my Pismo. I'm running a stock 2.6.8 kernel on my Pismo.
If I run glxgears, I get a warning that says extension "XFree86-DRI" is missing. I've got "load dri" in X86Config-4, updated with dpkg-reconfigure. glxinfo reports the OpenGL renderer string is "Mesa GLX Indirect." The powerpc-list thread said that xlibmesa-DRI worked in 16-bit color only. Read also somewhere else that xdm/twm, which I'm running, doesn't allow per session changes to video modes. So do I have to run dpkg-reconfigure again and say my default video mode to 16-bit, or is there some other thing I need to do to get the accelleration running? Best and thanks!
