Well it's a bit optimistic to do tests with the sliaa branch since it's 
effectively NOT working. I wonder how you come to think it'd provide SLI?

I'm messing a bit with the SLI branch myself since it pains me that the 
card cannot use its full potential under Linux. It compiles fine. But 
could any of the Glide3 enlightenend people tell me what that error 
means and what causes it since I'm obviously too stupid to get any of 
the test apps to work. Where do I find documentation about Glide3 and 
it's interaction with DRI/Mesa?

I tried compiling the test applications in both the regular AND the sli 
branches and what I get is:

[coke@jekyll <mailto:coke@jekyll> tests]# gcc -s -O2 
-I/usr/include/glide3 -lglide3 -o test01 test01.c tlib.o
test01.c: In function `main':
test01.c:44: warning: return type of `main' is not `int'
/tmp/cc1i0nq4.o: In function `main':
/tmp/cc1i0nq4.o(.text+0x394): undefined reference to `grBufferSwap'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
[coke@jekyll <mailto:coke@jekyll> tests]#

Question: How comes? Is grBufferSwap not supported in Linux Glide3?
Commenting out the call to grBufferSwap  makes it compile, but upon 
execution I get:


[coke@jekyll <mailto:coke@jekyll> tests]# ./test01
gd error (glide): gd error (glide): grSstSelect:  non-existent 
SSTSegmentation fault (core dumped)
[coke@jekyll <mailto:coke@jekyll> tests]#

Which is about the same I get when I compile and install the SLI branch 
and try to run any GL app in XFree/DRI 4.1.0. That the SLI branch 
doesn't work is no wonder to me, but shouldn't the testapps in regular 
Glide3 work at least? Or am I just too stupid? [:)]

An answer would be highly appreciated.

Take care, Gilles May
