The DRI project is one initiative that is creating OpenGL driver implementations. Information
about the DRI project can be found on their site (http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/).
ATI Technologies??”You don??™t have to use binary-only drivers to get 3D acceleration for
some ATI video cards with open source drivers. Chip sets from ATI Technologies that
support DRI include the Mach64 (Rage Pro), Radeon 7X00 (R100), Radeon 2 / 8500
(R200), and Rage 128 (Standard, Pro, Mobility). Cards based on these chip sets include
All-in-Wonder 128, Rage Fury, Rage Magnum, Xpert 99, Xpert 128, and Xpert 2000.
3dfx??”If you can find a used unit on eBay (3dfx is no longer in business), there are several
3dfx cards that support DRI. In particular, the Voodoo (3, 4, and 5) and Banshee
chip sets have drivers that support DRI. Voodoo 5 cards support 16 and 24 bpp. Scan
Line Interleaving (SLI), where two or more 3D processors work in parallel (to result in
higher frame rates) is not supported for 3dfx cards.
3Dlabs??”Graphics cards containing the MX/Gamma chip set from 3Dlabs have drivers
available that support DRI in Linux.
Intel??”Supported video chip sets from Intel include the i810 (e, e2, and -dc100), i815,
and i815e.
Matrox??”The Matrox chip sets that have drivers that support DRI include the G200,
G400, G450, and G550.
