Has anyone had any success getting the ATI card working?? I think I am
close.  xvinfo now shows the ATI mach64 Video Overlay. I used the
ATI-4.30-14 binaries from http://gatos.sourceforge.net/ati.2.php to get that
working. but I cannot figure out how to get the XFree86-DRI extension to
work. 

 

kldstat shows that tdfx.ko, mga.ko, r128.ko, radeon.ko, and gamma.ko are
loaded, many graphical programs complain about "Xlib: extension
"XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0"  

 

I have the following modules enabled in my XF86Config: glx, dri, dbe,
extmod, etc..

 

I am running FreeBSD 4.10 with XFree's binary version of XFree86 4.3.0

My kernel is loading agp.ko as device agp0 and shows Intel 82443BX (440BX)
host to PCI bridge 

I did have ap_load="YES" in my /boot/loader.conf but recently commented it
out to see if it was causing problems - but no change.

I also installed the /graphics/dri ports package and I can see it load when
the kernel is loading local/etc/rc.d  but there is no mention of it when I
grep dmesg for it.  I'm stumped.

 

My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 7500

My video card is ATI Rage Mobility P/M 2x

 

Glxgears is showing between 580 and 600 frames in 5.0 seconds = 116,000 to
120,000 FPS

 

Any help is most appreciated
