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 The main DRI web site is at: http://dri.sourceforge.net There is also Eric Anholt's web site which is a little out of date, but you might find the troubleshooting section of use.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: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org > 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.
