I am seeking a driver, or information about a driver for Suse Linux 9.0 that will allow video accleration ( 3D OpenGL) on my brand new machine. My video chipset is a Via/S3 chipset. It's part of the VIA KM266 on the MB Northbridge The model is S3/Pro Savage DDR-K. I have found information about a basic driver, but it doesn't seem to allow 3D ( even though this chipset is quite capable of accleration, I know since I dual boot Windos ). So far, my searching has revealed: http://www.probo.com/timr/savage40.html#download In which the author says: VIA/S3 has release an updated version of THEIR Savage driver. It forked off of my source base about 3 years ago, so there are significant differences, but it looks like they have addressed a number of issues. This includes motion compensation support for MPEG playback (XvMC), and the long-awaited DRI driver for 3D OpenGL code. Ok, but on viaarena -- supposedly the /official/ support site for VIA/S3, they point back to probo.com (?#>#). Here's their drivers: http://www.viaarena.com/?PageID=184#ProSavageDDR I wrote Via's support department, but have not heard back. Again, is there any knowledge about a savage driver that will support 3D OpenGL acceleration. I have a desparate need to play TuxRacer :D on my new machine. _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
