Thanks. I'm using a AGP Radeon 9250. Ever since I enabled direct rendering I get similar notifications in dmesg: info: [drm] Setting GART location based on new memory map info: [drm] Loading R200 Microcode info: [drm] writeback test succeeded in 1 usecs drm0: [ITHREAD] $ glxinfo | grep rendering direct rendering: Yes $ I'm running 7.2-Prerelease (i386) from May, 1. BTW: hald is not running here, I tweaked my xorg.conf as per the entry 20090123 in ports/UPDATING. HTH, Philipp
