Hi!

I'm running a G450 with two independent screens (Xinerama would be better
but that seems to not support DRI)

Is there any tutorial how to set up the card so I can play Quakeforge
or Prdoom with Opengl-support ?

I followed a tutorial for XFree 4.0.1 and now have the drm-module, but
that seems not to help:
Preloaded elf module "agp.ko" at 0xc03bb09c.
Preloaded elf module "mga.ko" at 0xc03bb138.
Preloaded elf module "drm.ko" at 0xc03bb1d4.
[...]
agp0: <Intel 82443BX (440 BX) host to PCI bridge> mem 0xe4000000-0xe7ffffff at device 0.0 on pci0
[...]
drm0: <Matrox MGA G400 AGP graphics accelerator> mem 0xdf000000-0xdf7fffff,0xdf800000-0xdf803fff,0xe2000000-0xe3ffffff irq 11 at device 0.0 on pci1
info: [drm] AGP at 0xe4000000 64MB
info: [drm] Initialized mga 2.0.0 19991213 on minor 0

Note: I have a G450, not a G400 !

glxinfo showed "direct rendering: Yes" but when I compiled and started 
glclock from the ports the box freezed reproducable.

I used cvs to checkout the ports from 2. June 2001. There was still 4.0.3
in there:
pkg_info |grep -i -e mesa -e xfree
Mesa-3.4.2_1        A graphics library similar to SGI's OpenGL
XFree86-4.0.3_3     X11R6.4/XFree86 core distribution (complete)

What can I do to enable DRI ?
Will there be support for xawtv or mplayer/gtv/xine on the secondary screen
with xinerama in the future ?
Why isn't DRI supported with Xinerama ?

Thanks, Hendrik
