It doesn't contradict. All the X server says is that the initialization of DRI went fine and it uses DMA for 2D acceleration and Xv. There are still a few requirements for direct rendering a client can fail to meet. Running glxinfo (or any GL app, for that matter) with LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose might tell the reason. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
