Installed ubuntu 10.10 on Acer Aspire 10.10 an everything installed perfectly and worked better than expected considering the age of the laptop. The only thing I cant seem to get to work is the 3d graphics. Accordng to the ubuntu onlne man pages the ProSavage kn133 (basically a savage4) should work for both 3d and 2d. However when I run glxears the screen goes black and logs me out. It just seems odd as direct rendering says yes. Here is the output from glxinfo | grep rendering:
direct rendering: Yes
X Error of failed request: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 137 (XFree86-DRI)
Minor opcode of failed request: 9 ()
Resource id in failed request: 0x4200004
Serial number of failed request: 44
Current serial number in output stream: 44
Many thanks if I could get some help
