I'm sorry for the late reply, I don't read this list very often. But better late than never. ;-) Gianmarco Giovannelli <gmarco@giovannelli.it> wrote: > Now I ask a thing before I am driving crazy.

Actually I don't need opengl because I'm not a 3D killer game player, and I think those 3D opengl screensaver modes are a waste of battery power. But I tried to get 3D acceleration working anyway, just out of curiosity. :-) I'm using RELENG_6 (about 6 weeks old), with the agp and drm sources copied from a CURRENT source tree (8 weeks old). Maybe those got MFCed to RELENG_6 in the meanwhile, I don't know (I think Eric Anholt was planning to do that, but I'm not 100% sure). But back than I had to copy those -current sources over. Other than that, I use Xorg 6.9 and the standard dri and opengl packages. No special patches or anything. I plan to update my notebook to a newer RELENG_6 soon (maybe next weekend) and try to see whether it now works without the -current bits.
