Please report comment and bugs here:
http://bugs.xfree86.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=276

Also that page has links to binaries and patches for mergedfb against xfree86 CVS.

Wait… my Radeon doesn’t have dual-head! Noooooooooooooooooooooo!

But, really, I’m curious as to what the performance hit is like when running on two monitors.

For example, you can now run X Window System applications without XFree86 by using XDirectFB (found with the DirectFB Project). Just recently (about a month ago), the DRI project (http://dri.sourceforge.net) announced on their mailing list that DRI has been separated from XFree86 and it may be used by other projects. After that announcment, DirectFBGL (yes, located at http://directfb.sourceforge.net also) has now incorporated technology to make use of DRI, thus we can now have accelerated openGL without XFree86. DirectFB’s homepage is currently down for maintenance, but when it returns to public contact it can be grep’d and pictures viewed of Quake3 in a Framebuffer with DRI.

My question:
Does anyone have success with Return To Castle Wolfenstein/ET running in DirectDB or FBDRI?

Those of you with Radeons will not have Framebuffer support from DirectFB, so you need to use technology from the FBDRI Project (http://fbdri.sourceforge.net).

Thanks and I hope ET is opensourced so we can have it running on PowerPC, Sparc, MIPS, and the more-superior Alpha.
