Nope. Santa's bringing it for Xmas, they say.

Yeah,santa will for sure.
But only if you really behave nice...
Fun aside,don't think that somebody will ever write a 3D driver for that
SIS graphics.It is pretty old and -sorry- not extremely popular.

ah ok,then i think i might get use to it the way it is.
it dosen't work for any distribution,or just for ubuntu?
i mean,i readed something about,mandriva 2010,or 2009,that it might work there.. i'm not sure about what distribution..
If you use an old distribution (means old X server- that's the point) you may install
the old official SIS drivers.Then you could also run Ubuntu,no need for old Mandriva or whatever.Honestly I don't know if the old official SIS drivers did 3D...google will tell.
And of course it might not be secure to run such an old distro online.

1. There are people still waiting for the Messiah (Barros Lee) to release a 3D driver for Linux. I think it'll happen just like the other Messiah... there are millions of people still waiting for him and they've been doing so for thousands of years.....
Do you wanna see how people beg for a driver? http://barroslee.blogspot.com/2008/0...supported.html
2. No, there isn't any properly working 3D driver for Linux, whatever distro. Mandriva has a special feature that somehow it works right out of the box, no editing-blind-typing-try-and-error stuff.... but still there's no 3D acceleration....

in know how to make the resolution work just fine.that's not big deal at all.
i just wanted to use compiz,to make my ubuntu eyecandy .
that's the only thing why i might need 3d acceleration.i don't play games.
i readed somewhere over the internet,that,it's possible to make 3d work in ubuntu 8.04 is that true?if so,why it's possible in hardy and not possible in 10.04?
can anyone tell me please,step by step how to install 2d drivers so i can watch movies in full screen?(i fixed resolution)(i use mint 11...)

hey guys! i'm a new to ubuntu and add me on the list of waiting for the damn 3d driver! I have a question,I tried lshw -C display on terminal and it say '-display UNCLAIMED'.In monitor settings, I can get the correct resolution but the refresh rate i always 0. I can watch in vlc in full screen and run games like Balazar brothers though it lags. I'm thinking ubuntu 11.04 automatically installed the driver for my IGP but these things are bothering me. Right now, I'm trying drivers I get from the net but nothing's working on me. It always bring me to recovery console. Anyone can clear things up to me? Thanks
