I have a system with an ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage Pro AGP 1X/2X (rev
5c) in it.
When I had this card in another machine, with Fedora Core 3, ISTR that
all I had to do to get DRI working was to switch from 24 bpp to 16 bpp.
However, now that I have the same video card in another machine, running
both Fedora Core 3 and Fedora Core 4 (dual boot), DRI doesn't seem to
want to turn on with either release of FC - GL is slow, glxinfo says
"direct rendering: No", and xdriinfo says:
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display":0.0".
Screen 0: not direct rendering capable.
What do I need to turn on DRI, using the opensource DRI stuff, rather
than the ATI-proprietary fglrx?
Thanks!
