Ok, it sounds like you did not turn on 3D while in sax2 then. It's possible that your screensavers are zonked, but more than likely, I would guess that you failed to accomplish everything while in sax2. If you do "glxinfo" from the shell, do you see direct rendering = yes there? If it's "no" then guess what? Yep, 3d is not turned on and you need to go back into sax2 to take care of that. I'm guessing you are trying to run a 3D screensaver when you get the error?
No, I did not turn on 3D in sax, but the screensaver is not 3D either. I'll have to wait until later in the day to work on this again, but I did not see how to enable 3D in sax. There is a check box, but it was greyed out. Is there another command in sax that will enable this?
Many thanks,

======== Jim, I'm not close to a SuSE machine at the moment and haven't used sax2 in a long time, but there should be a check box for 3d. Did you check to be sure the card is correct and it chose the right monitor+settings? If all that is correct, the 3d should come available to you. If not, you can always edit the xorg.conf file to set it on. Section "Module" Load "glx" Load "type1" Load "extmod" Load "dbe" Load "freetype" Load "v4l" Load "dri" EndSection That's the section you want to look about. Compare it to your xorg.conf and make the necessary changes. Be sure to restart X after making the changes, then try your "glxinfo" again for direct rendering. regards, Lee -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
