It works here on my inspiron 8000 with Rage Mobility Pro. Do you have your display set to 16bit? Here's my xf86config if it helps.

No, if you use XF 4.2 (not 4.1) and current kernel it should work, if you mix an old version of XFree with current kernel, do not activate DRI (hardware 3D).

Re: [Cooker] XF 4,1 3D accelleration
Ah ha ! There's a problem here that I had overlooked ! My card is detected as ATI|Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x but it doesn't work with the r128 drivers. It has to use the good old ati driver. Is this why 3D accelleration is not present ?
