Hi. Thanks for helping me. Here is what I get when I try "cat /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 | grep -i dri" Load "dri" Driver "keyboard" Driver "mouse" Driver "mouse" Driver "ati" Section "DRI" And here is what I get about dri in /var/log/XFree86.0.log (II) LoadModule: "dri" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libdri.a (II) Module dri: vendor="The XFree86 Project" compiled for 4.3.0.1, module version = 1.0.0 ABI class: XFree86 Server Extension, version 0.2 and (II) RADEON(0): Acceleration enabled (==) RADEON(0): Backing store disabled (==) RADEON(0): Silken mouse enabled (II) RADEON(0): Using hardware cursor (scanline 866) (II) RADEON(0): Largest offscreen area available: 1152 x 7321 (**) Option "dpms" (**) RADEON(0): DPMS enabled (WW) RADEON(0): Option "UseInternalAGPGART" is not used (II) RADEON(0): Direct rendering disabled Hummm. I don't know what to look for. Should I follow the instruction at (http://xoomer.virgilio.it/flavio.stanchina/debian/fglrx-installer.html) or it's not relevant to my problem? -- Jean-François Lefebvre École Polytechnique de Montréal Étudiant à la maîtrise génie énergétique -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
