Hi
Just installed VL6 Gold.
All okay bar desktop effects.
2D is fine.
gxlgears reports circa 600FPS.
however I cannot seem to enable desktop effects. I just get the error message relating to 'Failed to activate desktop effects using the given configuration options.."
I noticed that with
Options "DRI" "true"
I get an error mesage in the X log file:
(EE) AIGLX error: dlsym for __driCreateNewScreen_20050727 failed (/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/i965_dri.so: undefined symbol: __driCreateNewScreen_20050727)
(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering
If I disable DRI ("DRI" "false") the error goes away.
In both cases however, I still cannot enable desktop effects.
The chip is intel GM965 (intel driver)
A few other warnings in the log file appear irrespective of DRI setting:
grep "EE\|WW" /var/log/Xorg.0.log

I have tried EXA and XAA - both to no avail , i.e. no effects.
I'm using KDE4 but strangely kde-config reports:
