I have success on an i915GM using the i810 DRI kit from <a href="http://dri.freedesktop.org/snapshots/">http://dri.freedesktop.org/snapshots/</a> on top of an updated FC4 installation. I use 6.8.2 from livna via yum update.
<br><br>I get acceleration on one display (glxgears ~1200 fps at 4% cpu), and no acceleration on the 2nd display (~700 fps at 100% cpu). I have seen reports of up to 1400 fps with this chipset, but your milage may vary.<br>
<br>The intel driver snapshots from the <a href="http://freedesktop.org">freedesktop.org</a> site are packaged with an installer, which will build and link the kernel-mode modules required for direct rendering support. I only have experience doing this on Fedora, so I couldn't tell you what is required on other distributions.
<br><br>I have attached my xorg.conf file, which is not pretty but it does work as described (on my Dell d610 w/Fedora FC4). Perhaps this will be some help.<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Bryan<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">
