nVidia stopped tracking ia64 at least a couple of years ago ... so their closed driver is only usable on old kernels. -Tony --
Thanks for that, I now have the ZX-6000 and am using on the supplied Radeon 7000 (RV100) card with Ubuntu 8.04 (tried Debian too). Ive been trying to get DRI working and have been digging through several years worth of mailing lists on the various flat out bugs with X on the IA64 platform (which now should be fixed I hope!) and other issues. I have got it to the point that AGP is working but Im getting a very basic error as seen in glxinfo:
libGL error: failed to open DRM: Operation not permitted libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering Usually this is just a permissions issue which is cured by adding: Section "DRI" Mode 0666 EndSectionto Xorg.conf. I have tried that (also tried lowercase) and it just doesnt work, makes no difference. Does anyone have any input or even just assurance that DRI does indeed work, somewhere and somehow on someones IA64?
