Hi People
I have a machine with a Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express Integrated Graphics Controller
lspci
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
The xorg.conf is configured to use the "intel' driver and I need to enable 3D Support with DRI. So my question is, Is this possible with the latest updates in CentOS 5 ?
At first I believed that this would just involve enabling DRI so I added two sections to the xorg.conf
Section "Module" Load "glx" Load "dri" EndSection
Section "DRI" Mode 0666 EndSection
Upon restarting X glx and dri appear to load but running the command glxinfo | grep rendering
I still get direct rendering: No.
Some initial research suggests that the "intel' driver may be 2D only? and that building a newer version of the driver from the Intel site is not a straight forward thing to do.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get the functionality I need going? Or should I just look at replacing this card with something from Nvidia ?
Thank you for any insite you can offer.
