Direct rendering not working after upgrade to Xorg 7.0

I have aATI radeon 9200 card and although its supposed to be supported in the new xorg, direct rendering doesnt work. I have made the neccesary changes in xorg.conf. I deleted the ati drivers load "dri" and "glx" installed all the needed modules.

Does xorg 7.0 work with the propritery ATI drivers? My system is generally slow too and not as responsive as before.

Can some one with a working DRI post their xorg.conf. My PC is a compaq presario.

thnx

Re: Direct rendering not working after upgrade to Xorg 7.0

Did you remove the ATI drivers and install libgl-dri? Without libgl-dri, either you have software GL with libgl-mesa, or some ATI OpenGL lib that runs in fallback mode.
