The drivers require considerable work to adapt to new Mesa versions. The flow is Mesa -> DRI -> XFree86, and XFree86 4.2 was released a long time ago. XFree86 4.3 and CVS is based on Mesa 4.0.x, DRI CVS on 5.0.x currently. > Oh, also; now lspci tells me: > 00:10.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP > 2x (rev 02) > > :) Which (unsurprisingly) is the same as in your original post, did you mean the OpenGL renderer string as reported by glxinfo? -- Earthling Michel Dänzer \ Debian (powerpc), XFree86 and DRI developer Software libre enthusiast \ http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer
