Gladly.

>     What OpenGL features/extensions does your application use ?

I am told that it requires OpenGL 1.3,

It is a fairly unique sytem in that it interracts with OpenGL through a
version of FFI (see libffi now a part of gcc), providing an interface to
a Smalltalk environment.

I havn't explored the code much yet.

> Can you try turning them on and off ?

I don't know how to work with that part of the code yet, sorry.

Yes, I have it running on my other monitor now. -- I can't turn DRI on
the other card because both drivers would try to use /dev/dri/card0 and
crash!!!

Here are my results:

Software rendering: WORKS  (about 1.2 fps, if that..)
ATI Mach 64 (PCI):      WORKS  -- minor image degradation as would be
expected of a card of that vintage... (around 5 fps...)

ATI Rage 128: Works, slows down dramaticly in some areas, has a number
of visual artifacts.

MSI 9250: Some demos work, ones that don't contain portals to other
"fields". Ones that do have portals, segfault IN THE DRIVER CODE.

Basic troubleshooting..
I was trying to get my Mach64 to work so I installed newer drivers from
my distro (gentoo). When that had trouble (running both cards at once),
I tried the CVS sources (hoping the bug would have been fixed..)

I continued to use that same DRI for the R200, That has had the results
I mentioned above.
