 |
|
just installed gentoo on this machine, emerged X (X.Org X Server 1.13.0) and got the driver:
| Code: | [ 17892.762] (II) S3VIRGE: driver (version 1.10.6) for S3 ViRGE chipsets: virge, 86C325,
virge vx, 86C988, virge dx, virge gx, 86C375, 86C385, virge gx2,
86C357, virge mx, 86C260, virge mx+, 86C280, trio 3d, 86C365,
trio 3d/2x, 86C362, 86C368 |
but the driver is laggy as hell:
| Code: | [ 17927.302] (II) Loading sub module "xaa"
[ 17927.302] (II) LoadModule: "xaa"
[ 17927.302] (WW) Warning, couldn't open module xaa
[ 17927.302] (II) UnloadModule: "xaa"
[ 17927.302] (II) Unloading xaa
[ 17927.302] (EE) S3VIRGE: Failed to load module "xaa" (module does not exist, 0) |
I suppose that means EXA doesn't exist yet in xf86-video-s3virge-1.10.6, so I manually compiled xorg-server-1.12.4 with:
xf86-video-s3virge-1.10.5
xf86-video-s3virge-1.10.4
xf86-video-s3virge-1.10.3
xf86-video-s3virge-1.10.2
xf86-video-s3virge-1.9.1
xf86-video-s3virge-1.9.0
xf86-video-s3virge-1.8.6.5
but none of them compile, and got many errors:

any suggestions ? the purpose is to get an X server going with acceleration, it doesn't matter to me what version |

| XAA hasn't been accelerating anything for years, so there's no sense in trying to pursue that. If the driver doesn't have EXA, check it's manpage if it has ShadowFB, and if yes, activate that. |
