Charles, all,

I am just reading along here...

= My Machine =
Dell i8100 laptop
ATI Radeon 7500 Mobility
Mandrake 8.1
Linux 2.4.9-13smp i686 [ELF]
Upgraded to Xfree86 4.2.0  (rpm still thinks its 4.1)

> Do rpm -q Mesa.
> You should have Mesa-4.0.1-4mdk.

> Su to root and launch glxgears from a terminal.
> You should see the line "Loading required GL library
> /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2"

935 root@psybernet:/ (10:04:19)
# $ rpm -q Mesa
bash: $: command not found
936 root@psybernet:/ (10:04:32)
# glxgears
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
937 root@psybernet:/ (10:04:37)

So would it be useful for me to improve my system?

Shld i go to 8.2 first?
