I've never had DRI / X working... The problem(s) you're having sounds like the problems I was having... Comment out 'Load "dri"' in xorg.conf and try it again. Nikolas, Alistair - There is still active work going on in the DRI/DRM section of X.org for ATI/Radeon. There were some partial fixes posted to FreeDesktop.org's bugzilla, but they require X 6.9.0-CURRENT. Nikolas' suggestion (commenting Load "DRI") does work, but I was able to get the DRI to function (with 3D OpenGL) using CURRENT X (as of two months ago; it may be even better now.) -- Don Wilde Org 01737 505-844-1126 If it's there, and you can see it, it's real. If it's not there, and you can see it, it's virtual. If it's there, and you can't see it, it's transparent. If it's not there, and you can't see it, you erased it. -- Vlad Galu _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
