Hi,

I use sarge with a 2.6.12-rc4 Kernel to get my i915GMm-HFS AOpen Motherboard
successfully working for dri/drm/agpgart (onboard graphiccard):

Linux agpgart interface v0.101 (c) Dave Jones
agpgart: Detected an Intel 915GM Chipset.
agpgart: Detected 764K stolen memory.
agpgart: AGP aperture is 256M @ 0xc0000000
[drm] Initialized drm 1.0.0 20040925
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:02.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
[drm] Initialized i915 1.1.0 20040405 on minor 0: Intel Corporation Mobile
915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller

The standard XFree86 4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 is configured by /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
....
Section "Device"
Identifier "myMoth"
Driver "i810"
Option "DRI"
EndSection
....

/var/log/XFree86.0.log shows:
....
(II) I810(0): [drm] installed DRM signal handler
(II) I810(0): [DRI] installation complete
(II) I810(0): direct rendering: Enabled
....
also some warnings (XFree86.0.log is attached)

But _now_ when I do a 'glxinfo' I get "direct rendering: No"
??? This really confused me.

And how do I get 3d-Hardware-Support to play QuakeIII with full-speed?
Mesa is installed:
$ dpkg -l | grep mesa
ii xlibmesa-gl 4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 Mesa 3D graphics library [XFree86]
ii xlibmesa-gl-de 4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 Mesa 3D graphics library development files
ii xlibmesa-glu 4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 Mesa OpenGL utility library [XFree86]
ii xlibmesa-glu-d 4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 Mesa OpenGL utility library development file


It would be great if someone out there could help me.

regards


PS: $( dmesg ) shows a
"mtrr: base(0xc0020000) is not aligned on a size(0x180000) boundary"
is that due to my gfx-card?
