I have a laptop with an S3 Twister-K graphics chip and Im want to
enable its OpenGL support under SuSE 9.2.
I have found a page (http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building) which
has instructions for doing just that, but it involves compiling a new
version of X.Org, MESA and DRM.
I don't think that I can do any of this via RPM, so I was wondering
what issues I might have with YAST once I'm finished.
