FxChiP: wait
FxChiP: aw, he's gone
jamesstanley: How do you get glx in radeonhd?
chithead: jamesstanley: enable DRI in xorg.conf and make sure kernel drm modules and mesa are in place
jamesstanley: chithead: since X started auto-configuring itself, I have no idea how to enable things in xorg.conf
jamesstanley: so I'll get googling
chithead: jamesstanley: create a device section with driver radeonhd and option dri true
jamesstanley: chithead: would lsmod | grep drm show something if I had drm?
chithead: after enabling dri, you will see in xorg.conf whether drm is set up properly
jamesstanley: there is nothing in xorg.conf
jamesstanley: Section "Device"
jamesstanley: Driver "radeonhd"
jamesstanley: Option "dri" "True"
jamesstanley: End Section
jamesstanley: like that?
jamesstanley: oh endsection one work
jamesstanley: *word
jamesstanley: needs an identifier string
jamesstanley: chithead: /var/log/Xorg.0.log: (WW) RADEONHD(0): Option "dri" is not used
chithead: maybe you have to name it "DRI"? see man radeonhd
jamesstanley: ok
jamesstanley: At the time of this writing, radeonhd has the following major limitations:
jamesstanley: · NO support for 2D & 3D acceleration, no support for Xvideo.
jamesstanley: erm
jamesstanley: is that true?
chithead: you need at least radeonhd 1.2.4 for proper 2d and video acceleration
jamesstanley: well i was kinda hoping for 3d acceleration :P
chithead: 3d acceleration is supported for r500 series. r600 is currently limited to simple opengl demos. see http://wiki.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature
jamesstanley: ok
