coverup Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Its the right driver coverup, i915 kernel + i810 Xorg, theres also an i810(i think thats right) kernel driver, but the i915 driver is substantially better Does anything run as root that needs direct rendering/3dgl? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> In my quest for 3D on Radeon M9, 3D worked under Knoppix with XFree86 radeon driver, but Mandrake's radeon driver never worked. Ianw1974 may be using a correct driver, but because it's Mandrake, you never know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianw1974 Posted May 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 (edited) Have decided to rebuild the machine. I found that I couldn't get the graphics working correctly, and believe it was due to upgrade to LE2005 from 10.1 OE. I also noticed that I couldn't even run OpenOffice, because of the libGL error message. Am now running 10.1 OE, and all is fine. Although, I have to use the Intel drivers to get OpenGL working with 10.1 OE, but that's OK. Many thanks for your help on this though!
