:I've also noticed with things (particularly xawtv), that if DISPLAY is

:So if you're sure you've got DGA enabled, and it's still not being detected,
:try changing your DISPLAY to localhost:0.0 to see if that makes a difference.
Changing the $DISPLAY to localhost:0.0 or <hostname>:0.0 gives yet another
error, as follows:
Shm Extension not available...X Server isn't local.
XF86DGA not available...X Server isn't local.

I know with XFree86 4.x, the X server is wrapped in a virtual frame
buffer. At least, that's my understanding of the docs. Might this be
interfering?
