On this machine, X.org 7.2 is running happily except for the lack of DRI. I have done some searching, and it seems that ( according to http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/FreeBSD?highlight=%28CategoryOperatingSystem%29) DRM is still not available for this chipset, i.e. VIA CLE266 is not in the list. Below is the message I get in Xorg.0.log: ---------- (II) VIA(0): 3D Engine has been initialized. drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such file or directory) drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such file or directory) drmOpenDevice: Open failed drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such file or directory) drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such file or directory) drmOpenDevice: Open failed [drm] failed to load kernel module "via" (II) VIA(0): [drm] drmOpen failed (EE) VIA(0): [dri] DRIScreenInit failed. Disabling DRI. ---------- I tried loading the 'drm' kernel module, but it cannot detect anything. Does this mean that there's no hope for DRI on this chipset? Thanks
