Hi again, Mesa 7.6.1 is pretty recent and includes a new driver for r600 cards like mine. Should I install that? For drm, I guess I will have to find a patched version. Someone gave me a link to a mesa 7.6.1 rc4 file that includes a makefile for drm. I guess I'l= l try that. And see if mesa 7.6.1 is ok, unless you think it will likely don'= t work. Thanks! 2010/1/25 Robert Noland <rnoland@freebsd.org> > On Mon, 2010-01-25 at 20:34 -0500, Fran=E7ois Leclerc wrote: > > Hi Robert, > > > > Here are my Xorg log and xorg.conf files. > > Ok, I think what it is referring to is mesa...
