Michael, This might sound like a stupid question but...Did you load the DRI kernel module for the card before start the X server?
3D acceleration under X is a two part system. There is the X server and the DRI module for X, but it also requires a kernel module for the hardware being accelerated. The main DRI web site is at: http://dri.sourceforge.net There is also Eric Anholt's web site which is a little out of date, but you might find the troubleshooting section of use. http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/dri/ Regards...Geoff On Tue, 25 Jan 2005 04:15 am, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Message: 25 > Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2005 13:48:23 -0600 > From: Michael Madden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: OpenGL hardware acceleration with FreeBSD 5.3 > To: [email protected] > Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii > > I have a Matrox G400, and I cannot figure out how to get hardware > acceleration setup for it. �glxinfo still displays "direct rendering: No", > and OpenGL apps like glxgears are slow. �I've made sure I've got the dri > and glx modules loaded, and I've added the DRI section to xorg.conf. > > If it helps, here is my xorg.conf file. �Thanks for the help. > > Section "Module" > � � � � Load �"dbe" > � � � � Load �"dri" > � � � � Load �"extmod" > � � � � Load �"glx" > � � � � Load �"record" > � � � � Load �"xtrap" > � � � � Load �"freetype" > � � � � Load �"speedo" > � � � � Load �"type1" > EndSection > > Section "Files" > � � � � RgbPath � � �"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb" > � � � � ModulePath � "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules" > � � � � FontPath � � "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/" > � � � � FontPath � � "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/" > � � � � FontPath � � "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/" > � � � � FontPath � � "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/" > � � � � FontPath � � "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/" > � � � � FontPath � � "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/" > � � � � FontPath � � "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/" > EndSection > > Section "InputDevice" > � � � � Identifier �"Keyboard1" > � � � � Driver � � �"keyboard" > EndSection > > Section "InputDevice" > � � � � Identifier �"Mouse1" > � � � � Driver � � �"mouse" > � � � � Option � � �"Protocol" "auto" > � � � � Option � � �"Device" "/dev/sysmouse" > ��������Option � � �"ZAxisMapping" � � �"4 5" > EndSection > > Section "Monitor" > � � Identifier �"hp 1825" > � � HorizSync � 31.5 - 64.3 > � � VertRefresh 50-70 > EndSection > > Section "Device" > � � Identifier �"Matrix G400" > � � Driver � � �"mga" > � � VideoRam � �16384 > EndSection > > Section "Screen" > � � Identifier �"Screen 1" > � � Device � � �"Matrix G400" > � � Monitor � � "hp 1825" > � � DefaultDepth 24 > > � � Subsection "Display" > � � � � Depth � � � 8 > � � � � Modes � � � "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" > � � � � ViewPort � �0 0 > � � EndSubsection > � � Subsection "Display" > � � � � Depth � � � 16 > � � � � Modes � � � "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" > � � � � ViewPort � �0 0 > � � EndSubsection > � � Subsection "Display" > � � � � Depth � � � 24 > � � � � Modes � � � "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" > � � � � ViewPort � �0 0 > � � EndSubsection > EndSection > > Section "ServerLayout" > � � Identifier �"Simple Layout" > � � Screen "Screen 1" > � � InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer" > � � InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard" > EndSection > > Section "DRI" > � � Mode 0666 > EndSection -- Geoff Glasson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
