My Xorg is suposed to suport dbe & direct rendering:
Code:

Section "Module"

# This loads the DBE extension module.

    Load        "dbe"   # Double buffer extension

# This loads the font modules
    Load        "type1"
#    Load        "speedo"
    Load        "freetype"
#    Load        "xtt"

# This loads the GLX module
    Load       "glx"
# This loads the DRI module
    Load       "dri"

EndSection


But Xawdecode still crashes at this point

Code:

ibai@nemesis ~ $ xawtv
This is xawtv-3.94, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.13-gentoo-r3)

Any ideas about the Xawtv crashes?

Well, it was just a matter of adding to more lines to xorg.conf:
Code:

    SubSection  "extmod"

    EndSubSection


But know Xawtv freezes the X server when it starts, but this issue will be solved in another thread!
