Hi All,
By using the environment variable LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 my glxinfo 
showed the following:

*direct rendering: No
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) IGDNG_M GEM 20091221 2009Q4*

My research showed that the Xclient is actually using indirect rendering 
where as the Xserver is inturn using the DRI path.
Instead of the above how can I get the below output, so that I can 
ensure  graphics flow is using software rendering ?
*
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer

*

Thanking you in anticipation,

Neeraj N.T
