Re: [gentoo-user] 3d rendering with dri radeon

[Bruce Burden <brucegb@realtime.net>]

   Okay, I have decided to use the xorg DRM module. However, I am
   still doing something wrong:

name of display: tigerprowl:0.0
Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
display: tigerprowl:0  screen: 0
direct rendering: No
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.2
server glx extensions:

   I am not sure what this means, however, as:

(II) LoadModule: "extmod"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/modules/extensions/libextmod.a
(II) Module extmod: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
        compiled for 6.8.2, module version = 1.0.0
        Module class: X.Org Server Extension
        ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.2
(II) Loading extension SHAPE

        compiled for 6.8.2, module version = 1.0.0
        ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.2
(II) Loading extension XFree86-DRI
(II) LoadModule: "dbe"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/modules/extensions/libdbe.a
(II) Module dbe: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
        compiled for 6.8.2, module version = 1.0.0
        Module class: X.Org Server Extension
        ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.2
(II) Loading extension DOUBLE-BUFFER


The Xorg.0.log file shows what seems to be the appropriate DRI module
being loaded.

I have:

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "X600"
        Driver      "radeon"
        VendorName  "ATI Technologies Inc"
        BoardName   "RV350 [MOBILITY RADEON X600]"
        BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

for the xorg.conf entry. Should it be "ati"?


# lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by

libcrc32c               2816  0 
crc_ccitt               2176  0

    I assume intel_agp is appropriate for the 915 chipset?
