no direct rendering?

Post by 0000000000000 » Sat Mar 28, 2009 5:28 am

I just discovered that I have no direct rendering.

Using intel driver -9999 from x11 overlay
xorg-server-9999 from x11 overlay
mesa-9999 from x11 overlay
dri2proto-9999 from x11 overlay
xf86driproto-9999 from x11 overlay

loading modules dri dri2 and glx in xorg.conf

have:
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection

in xorg.conf


kernel has:
CONFIG_AGP=y
CONFIG_AGP_INTEL=y
CONFIG_DRM=y
CONFIG_DRM_I915=y
CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS=y

There are no errors in xorg.0.log

yet
null@void ~ $ glxinfo | grep rendering
direct rendering: No


What might I be missing?


I do get this:

null@void ~ $ dmesg | grep AGP
No AGP bridge found


Edit:
void null # grep rendering /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(II) intel(0): direct rendering: DRI2 Enabled


I am trying to use xbmc, but it wont start as it says i have no direct rendering

What does /var/log/Xorg.0.log have to say even though it didn't have any errors? It should have mentioned something about loading dri and then looking for devices which support it and the final status of dir yea or nay. Also I seem to recall that DRI will not be enabled when an onboard gfx controller is leeching system memory instead of using its own.

From xorg.0.log

I downgraded to xorg-1.6.0 and now I do get an error:

Edit: Upgraded back to all -9999 versions, and the error went away. and I get this from xorg.0.log
