Hi,

First, glad to hear you got xine working.  To check if DRI is enabled do:

gwiz% glxinfo
name of display: :0.0
display: :0  screen: 0
direct rendering: No
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.2
server glx extensions:
    GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_import_context
    ...

The important line is the one about direct rendering (as you can see I
don't currently have DRI enabled).
