Hi. This is just a request for an enhancement: I'd like the DRI driver for the built-in savage chip (an S3 Inc. 86C270-294 Savage/IX-MV) on my IBM T21 laptop to use AGP memory (rather than local video RAM) for the back-buffer and depth-buffer. I think MS Windows 2000 can do this, because I can get DRI on Windows at 24-32bpp at 1400x1050 resolution, whereas xorg cannot do this (it reports: "xxxx kB of Videoram needed for 3D; 8192 kB of Videoram available", where xxxx is greater than 8192). I asked about this subject on the dri-users mailing list, and this RFE is just a paraphrasing of the explanation that Roland Scheidegger kindly gave me - you can find the archive of the conversation here: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=30457329&forum_id=6511 Many thanks.
There's another archive of this discussion here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.dri.user/5979/ (sourceforge's forums are down at the moment)
