Re: [Dri-users] No DRI on i815e, ATI Rage 128 PRO, latest DRI, linux-2.4.2, XF-4.0.2

Bill,

That was it! Fantastic and so simple? Thank you very much.
startx -- -depth 24, and the dri and accelerated OpelGl.work.

That must have happened when I installed 4.0.2. My setup on
4.0.1 asked for 24 bit depth. But I forgot about it along the way.
I probably had to change things in the XFree86Config file at
some point and I didn't notice that  my sever was booting in 8 bit
therafter.

I assumed that the answer to the problem would be short,
but not that short! I didn't know that the DRI doen't work
at the 8 bit depth, though.

Thank's again, Bill

Richard
