Hey all

Here is a question for yas. Why is it that we can't play games with hardware acceleration straight off when using XGL. I know there is a workaround somewhere but it didn't go so well for me. Is it that we wil never be able to do that or that it is something that hasn't been solved yet?

Thanks for any info

I can game just fine with xgl+beryl. Are you talking about using wine or native linux games when using xgl?

Native like UT2004. Hmm maybe I got the wrong end of the stick. When I tried UT04 with XGL working I got no textures. I was told it was XGL but maybe it wasn't.
