I downloaded xfree 4.1 from the above site using apt-get. I have enabled all the stuff for dri ( I am now on 2.4.9 kernel ). But still I get the following : (**) Option "dpms" (**) I810(0): DPMS enabled (==) I810(0): Direct rendering disabled ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Any ideas what am I missing ? My kernel options are : # # Ftape, the floppy tape device driver # # CONFIG_FTAPE is not set CONFIG_AGP=y # CONFIG_AGP_INTEL is not set CONFIG_AGP_I810=y # CONFIG_AGP_VIA is not set # CONFIG_AGP_AMD is not set # CONFIG_AGP_SIS is not set # CONFIG_AGP_ALI is not set # CONFIG_AGP_SWORKS is not set CONFIG_DRM=y # CONFIG_DRM_TDFX is not set # CONFIG_DRM_GAMMA is not set # CONFIG_DRM_R128 is not set # CONFIG_DRM_RADEON is not set CONFIG_DRM_I810=y # CONFIG_DRM_MGA is not set Thanks in advance.
