I just downloaded it and installed it. When I try to run it I get:

Sounds like 3D support is not correctly setup. It would be just a guess by looking at those messages. What does the output of 3Ddiag say??

Wow, great tip! Here's the output. I guess I have a problem with extensions....what ever they are. I'm running a Matrox G550 on my system, shouldn't it be 3D already? I looked at the XF86Config file and noticed no dri in the Modules section. Do I just put it in what it says below, "Load 'dri'"?
I notice in my DRI section of XF86Config, I have 2 lines: Group "video" and Mode 0660. Should I have anything else there? ************************************************************ [...] Thanks, Tom =============
Tom, I think the easiest & best way for you to do the 3d setup is to drop down to init 3 and run sax2 for your graphics card. Under sax2, you can initiate 3D and make sure all your other settings are optimized as well for your setup. You could edit your XF86Config file, but you take the chance of rendering your graphics unusable and having to run sax2 anyway. Plus, in running sax2 normally, you take care of any files in the /etc/sysconfig directory that need to be optimized for graphics, keyboard, mouse, etc. automatically.
