[SOLVED] SavageIX DirectRendering =yes but GLXgears blank

[lunchlady55]

Yea, yea I know it's an old card, but I can't really replace it, it's soldered on to my T20 mobo.

So, I've been all over Google and the forums looking for an answer to my problems.

glxinfo reports that I have drm enabled, but when I run glxgears, it get a blank window. STDOUT does not show a FPS like in a working setup.

Hi,
This is a bug with the savage X driver. See http://www.mail-archive.com/dri-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg26867.html
I solved it by keywording the latest savage driver under x11-drivers and emerging it some time ago...

Yea, so open mouth, insert foot. It's working now.

Thanks!
