Hello
I have been trying to get direct rendering working and it is not going well. I am using the xf86-video-ati drivers and my xorg log gives:
| Code: | localhost ~ # grep -i "dri" /var/log/Xorg.0.log

(EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib/dri/r200_dri.so failed (/usr/lib/dri/r200_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) |
The (EE) says it can not find r200_dri.so in /usr/lib/dri/ and sure enough it is not there. The r200_dri.so file is not part of xf86-video-ati so I guess my question is where does the r200_dri.so file come from.
my video card is a radeon 9200 |

Thanks fangorn for your reply.
I have a Sabayon live dvd so I loaded it and used it to do a little troubleshooting. I did an
| Code: | | equery belongs r200_dri.so |
and it said that r200_dri.so was part of mesa. From my gentoo box all the other files in /usr/lib/dri are from mesa when equeried.
I temp fixed the direct rendering problem by making a copy of r200_dri.so from Sabayon and placing it in the gentoo's /usr/bin/dri. I also had to link libexpat.so .0.5.0 to libexpat.so.1. Now direct rendering works and I get a frame rate of 2000 or so fps with glxgears.
That being said, I know what I have done to fix this problem is not correct and would like to fix it the right way. I don't know but mabey I have a flag missing in make.conf or somthing ? Should There be a specific USE flag set when mesa gets compiled ? If so, What is it or what do I read to I find out ?
My current version of mesa is media-libs/mesa-6.5.1-r1. There are newer versions but they are masked. Also about the libexpat link is this a normal way to do this or would I have to emerge a masked expat ?
thanks for the help. |

Yeah, I remember now that I read somewhere the Radeon project was joined into the mesa project.
In CVS version of mesa there is support for r300 chipsets, r200 chipsets should be supported in older mesa versions too. But I dont know what version supports r200 first.

OK, I think I got it working pretty much now. Only one hitch, for some reason, no DRI modules are built. I got the DRI flag enabled and the radeon flag turned on. Do I need to have the fglrx as well or anything else?

after enabling radeon in VIDEO_CARDS you also need to rebuild mesa i guess. Make sure you are switched to xorg-x11 opengl (eselect opengl)
