Hi! thanks for a quick answer. Ok, more detail: > What hardware are you using (the i810 driver handles a range of chipsets) lspci output: ... 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corp. 82845G/GL [Brookdale-G] Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01) ...

Vmware compains that it detected DGA support, but this support does not provide any acceleration and warns that the full-screen mode will be of low performance (which is indeed true, especially scrolling). I paste vmware log parts, which seem to refer somehow to the problem. ... Feb 24 16:16:07: MKS|XINFO DGA version 2.0 Feb 24 16:16:07: MKS|XINFO DGA event base 68, error base 144 ...

As far as I see it only says us "DGA acceleration not supported", which may mean whatever it means. However, it might mean that i810 driver does not set some kind of "acceleration-supported" in some king of "dga-capabilities" structure, which I believe must exist in the X API. I wonder if there is a code example or something to test that. Or this is not really needed when we know the chipset?
