X.Org: AIGLX Driver selection


AIGLX loads swrast_dri.so even if mach64_dri.so is present in lib/dri renaming mach64_dri.so to swrast_dri.so had no effect, how do I select the active underlying driver ?

I have tried to compile xorg-server-1.5.0 with the option --disable-aiglx, it had no effect, aiglx is still present, I want to get rid of it so that my driver goes directly to DRI

In your xorg.conf do you have

Code:
Load            "dri"
in Section "Module" and also

Code:
Section "DRI"
        Mode 0666
EndSection
so that DRI is available to all users?

This article does raise some issues though;
