i810 chipset acceleration

#1 Post by darkerror05 »

I tried to use the 3d-control center but it doesnt do anything. I'm in pup2.12 and the card is a "Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics". I found this http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/x ... 15252.html and was wondering if I actually need that and if so how I would go about getting it.

You need to select Intel drivers.

I have that same chipset in one of my computers but haven't bothered with acceleration in Puppy, just in Fedora to test AIGLX.

Search the forum I am sure that there are instructions somewhere. If not, Remind me in a couple of days and I may have time to try it.

well I am using the the i810(i915) driver. The control center says that accelaration is running but I dont see any change in the frame rates.

I too have an 82845 card but can't even get xorg to start with 3dcc. I installed only i915 after I read a page on intel's site. Should I install i810 as well? As implied when darkerror05 wrote
i810 (i915)

(Why the driver for a thing doesn't have the thing's name in it is beyond me. )

I'm using puppy 213 with zdrv_213.sfs. In fact xorg won't start without 3dcc.

Ubuntu 6.10 will start but it uses X11R6. I have the xorg.conf. Is there some way I can make use of it?
