You cant get GEM working without GEM mesa. I think if You install latest mesa, and have non GEM kernel it should report gem no supported faling back to classic. I haven't tried with older mesa though. But its not so hard to install 3 sourses for GEM to work, unless You want dri2 which means recompiling all xorg stuff. <div class="gmail_quote">2008/11/4 Vasily Khoruzhick <<a href="mailto:anarsoul@gmail.com">anarsoul@gmail.com</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> The thing is that in 2.6.27 irda subsystem is broken, and sane patches to fix it exists only for <a href="http://2.6.28." target="_blank">2.6.28.</a>..
