Though I can't say why. I always thought that AGP was just a PCI bus, but dedicated to the graphics card ;) (Possibly running slightly faster than the main bus these days too, I guess). That would explain it, although it's not necessarily correct. > I'm running debian and gxl is installed in: > /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/ > libglx.so is a sym link pointing to libglx.so.1.0.4191 You can use glxinfo to see what stuff is running in the X server when you start it. Two lines from mine: direct rendering: Yes server glx vendor string: SGI That means I have 3D hardware acceleration enabled. You should see something similar - if you get No for direct rendering, or something about software, it means the module hasn't loaded. Cheers, Alex. PS.
