Hi Srini,<br>
<br>
I am not an expert in this field, but I have done some study on
this.According to my<br>
understanding, you can run some OpenGL application on top of Mesa-3D
library <br>
and verify whether you use DRI(direct rendering infrastructure) path.
For that you may<br>
need to configure the Mesa-3D library to use DRI. Then run some tools
like 'glxinfo'<br>
and it would tell you whether you used DRI path. Also, you can insert
some 'printk'<br>
inside <a rel="nofollow" class="fref">your
graphics driver and verify. Please share your thoughts about this
approach.</a><br>
I am also eager to know about this.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Sudeep<br>
