1 | Hi gentooers, |
2 | i'm running a Centrino machine with an ATI Radeon Mobility 9700 |
3 | card using the ATI proprietary driver. I would like then to try the |
4 | opensource (R300) driver, since this also supports the AIGLX |
5 | extensions (at least i think, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_AIGLX). |
6 | However: |
7 | 1) i don't understand if these opensource drivers are actually in the |
8 | Xorg tree or i have to use an external CVS repository (from |
9 | http://www.gentoo.org/news/en/gwn/20061009-newsletter.xml it seems |
10 | they are in the stable tree); |
11 | 2) if with these drivers the DRI can be enabled or not; |
12 | 3) if there exists a definitive howto to help users install these |
13 | drivers (http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_DRI_with_ATi_Open-Source_Drivers |
14 | is updated?); |
15 | |
16 | Thanks to all, |
17 | Marco |
