Seeing your guys' conversation here compelled me to give DRI acceleration another try, so I did a make World in both the XFree86-current tree and in the DRI development branch you pointed to and installed the results (though to get `make install' to function in the DRI bits, I had to remove the tdfx driver from the build list). Now I'm going down your checklist: > 1) Verifying your libGL is the DRI-enabled one (it almost certainly is, but > just to double-check): Check. The X server also identifies itself as: XFree86 Version 4.1.99.1 (DRI bsd-2-0-0) / X Window System > 2) DRM module loaded > > > kldstat | grep mga > 3 1 0xc041f000 183f4 mga.ko No check. This has me stumped. root@winston-> kldload /a/local/lib/drm/mga.ko kldload: can't load /a/local/lib/drm/mga.ko: Exec format error This is as installed from /usr/ports/graphics/drm-kmod and, for some reason, the resulting modules are disliked by my 4.5-PRERELEASE system.

I see nothing in our MAKEDEV which supports this. My system is an older AMD Athlon (Slot-A) with ASUS K7 mobo and Matrox MGA G400 AGP. Even without DRI support, I get glxgears to do ``860 frames in 5.0 seconds = 172.000 FPS'', though things like sproingies and tuxracer turn in something closer to 4-5 FPS. I've also recompiled both from scratch, just in case they're linking with something weird, but no luck. Any ideas for someone who's a few steps further back than you guys? :) Thanks! - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
