there are loads of posts on google about this which mean nothing to me not all of this relates to the new kernel and i dont want to try to fix it with a patch that will not work. Specifically I dont want to not be able to start my system.
I got no errors during the last stage I checked this with the command u suggested with grep '\*\*\*' world.log.
Could you please help with this as I need to get up to speed as quick as I can so I can get modelling in 3d.
This technique worked for me on the first attempt.
I followed the tutorial, yet had an error on compiling, if you have, just do like me, compile as a user then switch to root, and if you still have an error, reboot and try again... if you still have an error, i dunno...
Seriously, now i can fully enjoy OpenGL games on my laptop at DECENT speeds.
Thank you so much.

There was a typo in his tutorial
before exports/.... add cp
like:
cp exports/libs/.....

I'm *attempting* an install using the howto on a Compaq Presario 2545US, on Fedora Core 2. I've been having a wee bit of trouble. After following the howto completely, I get an alert saying that the Xserver could not start. Upon viewing the details, it complains that it was not able to start a screen, adding that no screen could be detected. If anyone can offer any help, that would be greatly appreciated.
Ur guide worked with my Slack10 box. However, I only got it working for the 2.6.7 kernel. I didn't succeed using the 2.4.26 kernel because I couldn't find any appropriate patches for the agpgart.
Thanks again, D.
I finally got it working!! An update to Kernel 2.6.27 brought agpgart to life! After that i recompiled Mesa and dri/drm and it worked! :-)
and hit enter when asked for password nothing happens, it just hangs and after some time gives a warning stating that it timed out. Am I doing something wrong? I appreciate any help.
The error I recieve is (as of today):
Code:
cvs [login aborted]: connect to dri.freedesktop.org(131.252.208.82):2401 failed: Connection timed out
this is what i got just after step 5. this is just the end of the process:
Code:
