My slack installation is not too bad i mean it is up 65% we are getting there. But the ATI people donī t work with the xorg people and the Slackware people don't work with the XFree people. Which leaves people like me a lot of oppotunities to really screw things up.
The story(lines/code) above is from my box after i said:
glxinnfo
the part wher it says;
direct rendering: No
should read
direct rendering: Yes (read it from somewhere).
How i got here?
I used XFree anyway with ATI 4.3 series but i changed the name of the file ( does not sound very intelligent to me but i read it somewhere --- that is even thicker on my part, i am desperate)
So once more ATI grpahics anyone?
Thanks good people of LQ,
xmeson.
