[Mesa3d-users] [ATI Radeon X1950 Pro] direct rendering: No

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hello,

I am on Slackware 12.2 operating system and I have a ATI Radeon X1950 Pro
graphic card.

The problem is I havn't direct rendering.

This is some things that can help you :
