You have been subscribed to a public bug: I just upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04 (Clean install) and while the new Gallium3D\r300g driver is much better than the older one, the 3D acceleration only functions when a TV is detected on the S-Video\TV-out connector.
When a TV is not detected, it falls back to "Software Rasterizer" instead. I have a Radeon 9600XT Bravo (VIVO Edition) When it's working I see in glxinfo output: OpenGL vendor string: X.Org R300 Project OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on ATI RV350 When it's not, I see: OpenGL vendor string: Mesa Project OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer For more information please refer to: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1772614 ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: 9600xt gallium r300g radeon -- Gallium\r300g doesn't enable 3D acceleration unless S-video output detects a TV. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/793834 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
