DRI - Direct Rendering Interface is (I think) the opengl mode |

try $glxgears to see performance of your video card |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
try "glxinfo | grep direct" to see if direct rendering is enabled |
| 6 |
|

I had direct rendering enabled in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and disabled in |
| 8 |
glxinfo |

On my i915 card I get around 700-800 fps on glxgears and it should be |

| 15 |
