Trust me, Luc, it's possible to use a driver without remembering how you got the ^#[email protected]^#%@! thing running in the first place
From a user perspective it's not such a world of difference, although I agree that technically it's different. I remembered there was a "disable by default" related to DRI, just didn't remember exactly where it was.
That's what I get for posting from a Vista systemLast edited by bridgman; 28 October 2008, 09:13 AM.

finally, I decide to use ATI 6.9 driver, the one with Ubuntu 8.10 as default. It works very well.

You have to put
Option "DRI"
into the device section. DRI in radeonhd had been disabled by default by intention, because r5xx DRI used to be pretty unstable.
Guess we can change the default to enabled on R5xx now.

libgl1-mesa-dri 7.2-1ubuntu2
The problem with radeonhd is that it would default to software 3D and I couldn't work out why, but with radeon working I didn't try too hard
