Hi !

I have this "Radeon IGP 340M"-adapter - but my Xserver complains:

"(WW) RADEON(0): Direct rendering not yet supported on IGP320/330/340/350, 7000, 9000 integrated chips"

What can I do - is it possible instruct XFree to use a older but
"Direct Rendering"-capable driver ?


I have a TP-R40e with the following vga-adapter:
