Yep. As I said, I haven't looked seriously at it. (Like do I need to put anything into /dev/dri? Do I need to use devfs? Is the kernel mad at me for building MGA/AGP stuff into the kernel instead of a module? [I had some USB modules refuse to work when usbcore was built into the kernel...]) I might play with it more tonight and see just what's can cause the 'drmOpen failed' part. -- CueCat decoder .signature by Larry Wall: #!/usr/bin/perl -n printf "Serial: %s Type: %s Code: %s\n", map { tr/a-zA-Z0-9+-/ -_/; $_ = unpack 'u', chr(32 + length()*3/4) . $_; s/\0+$//; $_ ^= "C" x length; } /\.([^.]+)/g;
