I use this chip and someday will get a good video card when I really want 3D.

For the last word from the author of the driver See: http://www.winischhofer.eu/linuxsispart4.shtml

Hi,
I have this card

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 661/741/760 PCI/AGP or 662/761Gx PCIE VGA Display Adapter

and when I activate de DRI in xorg.conf, Xorg log tell me

(NI) SIS(0): DRI not supported on this chipset
(II) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable

So, without the Direct Rendering Infrastructure only 2D acceleration is possible.

Hello,

How many of us are using this SiS card and willing DRI ?
ATI, Nvidia and Intel have drivers. Why not SiS ?
