Hello, all... I have a Dell Inspiron 4000 with a Mobility M3, and, for the life of me, I can't get DRI working on it. Gears complains about no DRI, and then gets ~100 FPS: nleroy@host:~> gears Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0". 514 frames in 5.000 seconds = 102.800 FPS Tuxracer complains similarly... XFree86 detects it as: (--) PCI:*(1:0:0) ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x rev 2, Mem @ 0xe4000000/26, 0xfdffc000/14, I/O @ 0xec00/8 SaX setup XFree86 to load GLX and DRI, and, from looking at the log, it appears that they're loaded correctly. Actually, that's not quite true. I can't really get SaX2 to generate a correct config because I need to add a 'option "Display" "BIOS"' by hand to the device line to get it to display at all. It appears that DRI and GLX are being properly loaded, however.

This chipset needs the GATOS driver. I don't know the status of the GATOS driver support in 8.2, but I don't think it works out of the box. My Inspiron 5000 didn't get hardware acceleration out of the box with 8.1 or 8.2. I applied the patches when I was running 8.1 and it worked fine. I didn't bother when I updated that machine to 8.2.
