Any advice on how to get Intel 855 working with Mesa? X.org had an update and they removed or deprecated the engine it used. Thanks.

- anthk 4y agoWhich distro? Parabola and Arch Linux have the mesa-amber package, which enables OpenGL for legeacy chipsets.
- steponlego 4y agoOpenBSD, I will look in to this package though. Maybe I can get it running from source.
- anthk 4y agoSorry, but that's futile entire X.org and drivers are bundled under the Xenocara brand in base. If you don't have it, consider it lost forever. If any, you can set machdep.allowaperture=2 in /etc/sysctl.conf Also, /etc/fbtab needs some settings for MESA, too. Basically you need to set read write the files under /dev/dri* with fbtab from /dev/ttyC5 if I can recall it well. EDIT: typo fix in /etc/sysctl.conf
