you want: Option "AccelMethod" "ShadowFB"

Excellent. In thanks I'll see if I can cook up a patch to the man-page to this effect. -sam -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org

Looks like someone beat me to it. The latest man page in git says the broken option is described as "deprecated" and the one that works "is considered to be more flexible." Not perfect but it certainly would have put me on the right track.

Interesting to know that the old method doesn't work any more... It actually should.

It's possible it does in the latest sources. I'm running v1.1.0 in Fedora 8. If I get around to installing the latest from git I'll test it and see if both work.

Please let the list know, I'm interested in this; we may want to set ShadowFB to be the default in Mandriva if the upstream default doesn't work in current git. -- adamw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org

If it doesn't, it should certainly be fixed before the next release. I don't like nuking deprecated options *that* fast ;-)

Thanks, but it's kinda edgy for MDV - we've technically been in version freeze for about two weeks, I can only upload new git snapshots with no trouble because they don't actually count as 'new versions' in our package naming system =) so I'm not sure whether we'll move from our current git snapshot before release. If I see commit changes logged "fix gigantic bug in $FOO" then I will, but if not, maybe not. -- adamw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org
