Hi, I have installed Suse Linux professional 7.3 onto my machine. The specs are: AMD k6-2 400 256MB SDRAM PC-100 Soyo SY-5EMA+ motherboard Radeon 7000 32MB DDR AGP (Powercolor Evil Wizard) video card (sorry for the long e-mail) My problem is that 3D acceleration does not seem to work. Using Sax2 I would enable 3D acceleration and then go through with the rest of the configuration, loading 3D modules glx, dri, fgl1, fgl23 (doesn't make a difference whether I load the last three or not). Then, running glxgears I get the following errors Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual If I run 3Ddiag it doesn't find a 3D capable card and also get the following GLU ... done (package xf86glu) glut ... done (package mesaglut) now if I do a 3Ddiag --dri I get, 3Ddiag version 0.369 Verifying DRI/XFree86 4.x configuration Using 3Ddiag.dri ************************************************************ Verifying 3D configuration based on XFree86 4 for 3D board "ATI Rage Radeon (1002@5159)": Tests for package "xf86_glx": package ... done. package files ... done.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance, Hubert Yoshizaki
