the mach64 is ati rage mobility M1 8MB on a sony vaio pcg-fxa53 (amd 1.3G + via chipset). The simplest way to use dri is adding deb http://people.debian.org/~daenzer/dri-mach64-sid/ ./ to sources.list and get the dri related packages (don't remember the exact names, three of them, one of which for kernel modules), you will need to remove the dri packages that came with the regular X. X is 4.3 from experimental, the kernel is a custom 2.4.23-pre4 (also tried with 2.4.21 and 2.4.22, 2.4.22-ac[12]). You will need to compile the kernel module for dri for X 4.3 (one if the packages provides the source). These drivers already include the xv support iirc. Debian is unstable. To get it working with swsusp required porting the suspend patch made for radeon which reset the dri on vt switch. I still need to clean the code up and understand it a bit more before its ready for redistribution, I hope I will have some time for this, and then I could put it up somewhere or get it inserted into the cvs tree. Will take some time, so if anyone wants to help, I have the modified source and the modified packages, no warranty though. I am currently using dri from the cvs tree from sometime in august with debian patches made against the tree on 4 may and taken from the source package, and the modifications to allow dri to work after wakeup from suspend without restarting X. > > > I am happy. > > ..does glxgears get the same framerate back when resizing the app? > (Maximizing, as in clicking the maximizer botton twice?) > I am afraid that the frame rate drops considerably when resizing glxgears, but the frame rate for the initial window size is about 300 which is more them the 195 I got without dri. Full size I get 44. Also quake 3 arena, quake 2 and tuxracer will run now, which they didn't before, and armgetrom gives me 45 fps instead of 3. Its not like this card actually has descent acceleration in the first place. > > The problem is still with suspend to ram which I don't expect to work > > any time soon, and is not related to swsusp but to acpi. -- Micha Feigin [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
