This is driving me nutts.... please tell me where am I going blind.....

I want 3D acceleration..... ok so we want dri drm glx

this looks good:
Code:
linuxbox shane # lsmod | grep drm
drm                    78872  2 i915
agpgart                37392  3 drm,intel_agp


but this does NOT:
Code:
linuxbox shane # glxinfo | grep render
Unrecognized deviceID 2592
direct rendering: No
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect


OK, lets debug....
Code:
linuxbox shane # cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep I810 | tail
(II) I810(0): LFP compensation mode: 0x1
(II) I810(0): Using XFree86 Acceleration Architecture (XAA)
(==) I810(0): Backing store disabled
(==) I810(0): Silken mouse enabled
(II) I810(0): Initializing HW Cursor
(**) I810(0): DPMS enabled
(II) I810(0): X context handle = 0x00000001
(II) I810(0): [drm] installed DRM signal handler
(II) I810(0): [DRI] installation complete
(II) I810(0): direct rendering: Enabled


what's there to debug?
Xorg tells me "direct rendering Enabled"..... glxinfo tells me "no"
who's lieing??

I don't know if this has anything to do with your problems, but there are a bunch of links and discussions so maybe you can find something:
