Re: [Dri-devel] Blank Xserver screen, any ideas?

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Ok, after playing around with the system for some more hours, I figured out
that the Voodoo3 seems to require being not only the primary head listed
in the XF86Config screen layout section, but also requires being initialized
by the BIOS during system startup.  So, after switching around my AGP/PCI
video search option in my bios, the Voodoo3 and the G400 are now happily
running Multi-headed X.

This does not bode well for anybody using a non-BIOS based machine such as
alphas or PowerPCs.

However, as can been seen from the attached xlog, the Voodoo3 dri
component is still showing disabled direct rendering.  Upon rereading
the docs it occurs to me that I have never set up a /dev/3dfx device.
Is this required?  The mention of a dependancy on libGlide3x.so would
seem to suggest so, but the main setup page never mentions creating the
device...

The Quake 3 demo does start but runs less than 1 frame a second, with
the sound buffer stuttering, presumably due to heavy PCI bus contention.
