    Default dri2

    In Xorg.0.log for both -ati and -radeonhd I get:
    Code:
    (II) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI2 capable
    Using a slackware -current which has dri2proto-2.0 if that is relevant.

    Is dri2 needed for 3d acceleration?

    Is this something that should be working with recent gits of drm/mesa/xf86-video-ati for the hd3200?

    By the way: radeonhd gives same message for dri. Maybe this is why glxinfo works with radeonhd while -ati locks.

    HD3200 would be an r6xx which along with r7xx only has experimental Mesa drivers (3D drivers) and due to kernel drivers not yet being in shape no DRI2. Just ignore those messages for now, the 3D drivers are Work-in-Progress. And no, DRI2 isn't needed for 3D acceleration, it's just about doing it better. :3
