NavyLT Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Does anyone know how to install DRI drivers for Radeon 9100 IGP (built into laptop) so I can get direct 3D rendering? Thanks! John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Both the "free" ati driver AND the "non-free" fglrx one support DRI. But DRI is not important if you want to use a composite window manager and compiz/compiz fusion/whatever. What EXACTLY do you want to achieve?

NavyLT Posted March 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 I was trying to get games like Brutal Chess to work and WINE as well. I went through the DRI troubleshooting guide on their website and figured out DRI is installed by default with Mandriva and the drivers were working as they were supposed to. I got the latest WINE rpm from their website and it installs and some of the games I have tried have worked perfectly. Some of the games written for 3D in Linux, though, don't work, such as Brutal Chess. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 What video driver are you using now? Please post the output of cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |grep -i driver Start Brutal Chess from the command line /usr/games/brutalchess and please post the error message?
