Option "DRI" This option will disappear when both 2D and 3D acceleration work simultanously. Use this option to enable 3D acceleration using DRI (currently, for R5xx chipsets only). This will disable 2D acceleration, making normal X11 desktop operation rather slow. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

On my openSUSE 11.0 system I now use the radeon driver and everything works smoothly. What about the xorg.0.log. It repeats the modelines over and over. Is this normal or a bug?

I'm not sure if I understand what you are referring to but it could be the issue that's discussed in #427645 already.

I don't really care, because I can set up the radeon driver, which works perfectly for me, manually. I just think people who aren't able to configure X11 manually would be grateful if 3D would just work. I' m quite sure radeon features 3D and 2D acceleration simultaneously (at least everything works fluently on my system) so maybe the radeon driver should be used instead of radeonhd and with enabled acceleration. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

That's exactly the point: for you. The R5xx 3D implementation is known to still have issues, it's just too new. You don't need to install the radeon driver, just add Option "DRI" to the device section. The default will be changed as soon as support is found to be more stable. The manual page's entry is a bit stale, 2D and 3D should work together in radeonhd as well. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
