Comment: THis machine has an ATI Radeon Mobility 9000. I have everything but DRI, and therefore 3D acceleration working... Can anyone get DRI working on an ATI card with the open source drivers? I can't use fglrx... --hackmiester

Reply: (edit)Post up your xorg.conf and have a look through /var/log/Xorg.0.log for any clues. Does it complain when trying to load the DRI module? Do you have: Load "dri" in your xorg.conf? Have you enabled it in your device section: Option "DRI" "true" ? Do you have a: Section "DRI" Group 0 Mode 0666 EndSection section?

Reply: (edit)Orbital: Thanks, but I can't use fglrx, as I posted originally. 3Dave:I added these lines: Option "DRI" "true" Group 0 that you said I should have had... and it worked. Thanks! I'm curious though, why do I need those? On an Intel 810 chipset, those lines aren't necessary to enable DRI, and that's what I was using as a base config... --hackmiester
