I'm running Etch, latest Xorg.
DRI has been working fine for sometime, up until just recently. Seems
that it is disabled somehow, and I don't know how to get it back :(.
There is a line in my recent Xorg.0.log file:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/log$ grep DRI Xorg.0.log
(II) Loading extension XFree86-DRI
(EE) MGA(0): [drm] DRIScreenInit failed. Disabling DRI.
I'm using a Matrox G450 card.
There was a recent workaround that I employed during the transition
from Xorg 6.9 to 7.0, which also disabled DRI, but the following
workaround enabled it:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G450 AGP"
Driver "mga"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "OldDmaInit" "true"
EndSection
i.e., adding the line setting option oldDMAInit to true works around
the problem - and this sufficed for a while, but no longer. It doesn't
seem to make any difference now whether that option is set or unset.
