Hello everybody,

I've the same problem with my Lenovo Thinkpad R61 which has a Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller. I know, it was working before, but after an upgrade of the kernel it doesn't anymore.
The drm kernel modul is loaded, but I don't have a /dev/dri/card0 device.
dmesg gives me no information about an error. It just says:
[ 35.314895] [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
[ 35.319054] [drm] Initialized i915 1.6.0 20060119 on minor 0
But glxinfo tells me:
direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
If I set LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose, I get no more information.
My xorg.conf is not changed, it is the original one which was generated by the system.
The error message in the xorg log is the one which you can read in the first contribution.
Last but not least, my kernel version is: 2.6.24-24-generic
Now my questions. Is the bug still not fixed for some intel graphic cards? Is there a chance to get 3D acceleration to work on my system? If yes, may you know a repository to download the right version.
