glide bug or DRI bug?
[Cc: me, I'm not on this list.] Okay, I finally got DRI working on my v3 2k LC. (Turns out glide 3 is required.) However, when I run glxinfo, my screen gamma changes. And it doesn't change back when glxinfo quits. Anyone know how to track this one down? P.S. Do the 4.0.3-0pre1v1 packages properly support DRI? I heard that the 4.0.2 packages don't (I use Mercury's packages.) -- Taral <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Please use PGP/GPG encryption to send me mail.

XF86Config-4 not generated
Hi, since I did not find an /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file after upgrading to X Windows (4.0.2-7), I did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-free86 answered all the questions, and expected that a new XF86Config-4 would be produced. But still no, I could not find any file of that name on my whole system... (I know that I can just run xf86config myself. I'm just wondering if that is a bug in Debian's config scripts...) -- Chris Stork http://www.ics.uci.edu/~cstork/
Ultra60
I have an Ultra60 with a type6 keyboard, 'crossbow' mouse, and a creator3d frame buffer. I've been trying to get XF4 running for some time now, but I can't find appropriate input clauses for my keyboard and mouse to get the xsession going. Any help is greatly appreciated.

DRI fails to work with no errors?
Hi, according to /proc/pci, I have a "ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage Pro AGP 1X/2X". I compiled agp and the r128 DRI driver for kernel 2.4.3-ac5. This seems to work: I get these messages: agpgart: AGP aperture is 64M @ 0xf800 [drm] AGP 0.99 on Intel 440BX @ 0xf800 64MB [drm] Initialized r128 2.1.2 20001215 on minor 63 However, glxinfo says I'm not running with direct rendering enabled, and sure enough, there is nothing in my /var/log/XFree86.0.log file to indicate that drm loaded successfull (or not) except this: (II) Loading sub module "drm" (II) LoadModule: "drm" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules-dri/linux/libdrm.a (II) Module drm: vendor="The XFree86 Project" compiled for 4.0.99.1, module version = 1.0.0 ABI class: XFree86 Server Extension, version 0.1 When XAA is initialized, I just get this: (==) ATI(0): Write-combining range (0xf500,0x80) (II) ATI(0): Using XFree86 Acceleration Architecture (XAA) Screen to screen bit blits Solid filled rectangles 8x8 mono pattern filled rectangles Indirect CPU to Screen color expansion Solid Lines Offscreen Pixmaps Setting up tile and stipple cache: 20 128x128 slots 5 256x256 slots (==) ATI(0): Backing store disabled No complaints, no nothing. I first was using Branden's debs, but then I installed xserver-xfree86-dri and added the two lines to my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file, and I get the same results. I suppose I should fetch and compile the dri modules from the sources at dri.sourceforge.net? However, is there anyway to find out why drm is NOT loading already?
