Direct rendering problems, no idea where to start

Andy Sz

I've been recompiling my kernel all day long, following the various pieces of information I have gleaned off the forum and the HOWTO to get DRI to work. The problem is that the information often seems contradictory, so I'm seeking some new help.

Step 1: Here is the output of lspci
0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technol0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x (rev 02)ogies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x (rev 02)

What chipset do I have? It is a Rage 128 or a Mach 64? Or neither?

I can post more information as needed.

So you think it's not really worth messing around with it? I only play a few games, and know that any OpenGL stuff is beyond what my card can handle.

Give it a try but don't get your expectations too high.
