The DRI people are aware that it's broken but so far it works for some people and not others, and nobody is exactly sure what the problem is. Your best bet is to avoid accelleration for now. Since you have an AMD chipset, it appears the problem is not limited to VIA. That's too bad, I was considering upgrading to an AMD board to get around this problem (and several others too..) --=20 Joseph Carter Free software developer Steal this tagline.
