Hey all
I have an ATI X1300 gfx card. I know that Linux hates ATI for some reason (proprietary drivers etc...). ALL of the Ubuntu forums say that you can't get OpenGL direct rendering going on most ATI cards. When I run 'glxinfo' I get Direct Rendering = No. Also when I run my freshly compiled XBMC I get a segmentation fault and I'm almost postative that it is for this reason. I was able to run it after I compiled it in 2d. Woof. I need my 3d rendering. And I have tried a coupple of half-solutions and I ended up breaking my X-server . So after that babble here is my question:
Has anyone gotten OpenGL 3D direct rendering working with an ATI gfx card? Thank you for any help!
P.S. I have also ran envy already and this hasn't found the correct drivers.
