[Bug 793834] Re: Gallium\r300g doesn't enable 3D acceleration unless S-video output detects a TV.

 

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected patch ubuntu

** Description changed:

  I just upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04 (Clean install) and while the new
  Gallium3D\r300g driver is much better than the older one, the 3D
  acceleration only functions when a TV is detected on the S-Video\TV-out
  connector.
  
  When a TV is not detected, it falls back to "Software Rasterizer"
  instead.
  
  I have a Radeon 9600XT Bravo (VIVO Edition)
  
  
  When it's working I see in glxinfo output:
  
  OpenGL vendor string: X.Org R300 Project
  OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on ATI RV350
  
  
  When it's not, I see:
  
  OpenGL vendor string: Mesa Project
  OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer
