thinkliberty Posted November 24, 2004 Report Share Posted November 24, 2004 DRI is not in the kernel you configure it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf To enable it add In "section "Module" Load dri and then at the bottom the file add Section "DRI" Mode 0666 EndSection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulSe Posted November 24, 2004 Report Share Posted November 24, 2004 DRI _is_ in the kernel. But using someone else's .config file is not the answer. What version of the kernel are you using? How did you obtain the source? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet2k5 Posted November 24, 2004 Report Share Posted November 24, 2004 There is a post somewhere on this board about getting DRI working with a kernel compile, I actually might think it's in another board, click on the link that I have in my signature and check it out on the ILC board. If I can find the link I will send it to you, I have go to now -LUis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iphitus Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Mandrake has DRI support already built into all their kernels. Unless you want to use the new i915 driver I dont see any real reason to update. And even if you do want to use it, upgrade to mandrakes 2.9 kernel.
