It was going great right up to this point where I get this trying to compile MesaLib-dri ... mklib: ERROR: Don't know how to make a static/shared library for DragonFly mklib: Please add necessary commands to mklib script. ... I hacked the mklib script in place and changed 'FreeBSD' to 'FreeBSD' | 'DragonFly' in the obvious place. Unfortunately once all was done starting the X server with dri enabled simply crashes the system (stop dead and reboot with no messages). The last thing in the Xorg.0.log is: drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 8, (OK) The only good news in all this is that I half expected this to happen. This combination of a Radeon 9200SE and an ASUS A8V has always crashed under dri in much this way, although I had been hoping that an up to date drm and agp set might fix it :) Any suggestions as to how I might go about tracking this little gem down ? -- C:>WIN | Directable Mirror Arrays The computer obeys and wins. | A better way to focus the sun You lose and Bill collects. | licences available see | http://www.sohara.org/
