Still: "AIGLX: Screen 0 not dri capable"

Hello,

I get this error message after startup at the login prompt.

The HW is:
Apple PowerBook G4 12" (PowerBook 6,8) 1,5 GHz
NVidia GeForce FX Go5200

I have already tried
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
and disabled either dri or glx or both, to no avail. X just doesn't
start at the login, with various error messages.

I'm so desperate that I even consider to recompile the xserver-xorg
package and configure it without dri. However I didn't figure out how to
do that. I got the source with
apt-get source xserver-xorg
and am stuck here.

How do I configure the build of this module?
Is there any other way of fixing this problem?

I don't need dri, I don't even need glx, I just want to have X running
at the login prompt.
Any hint is welcome.
Thanks in advance,

G. Heinrich

You will be able to run everything. First append the following in the
bootline of your kernel in /boot/grub/menu.lst

vga=771

Easier way would be to just press "e" when grub boots and then use
up/down arrow to come to line two and again press "e" and append
vga=771 at the very end of this line. Now press escape and "b" to
boot.

You can also install Nvidia driver (you will have to download files
from Nvidia site) by running module compilation utility.

I have just installed the same on a HP tablet note book and am now
able to run 3D effect also using this dirver.

There is no /boot/grub/ directory.

Maybe this one will help you. Go into xorg.conf ( or which config file
you have), edit Section "Module", add a hash '#' before the line "Load
glx" ", like this
/*********************
Section "Module"
[snip]
# Load "glx"
# Load "dri" /* as well as dri */
[/snip]
*********************/

And you must comment the whole of Section "DRI", like this

#Section "DRI"
# Mode 0666
#EndSection

Try it!

Hi,

TIP:Just check if xinerama is enabled. If it is enabled DRI will get
automatically disabled.
