driconf is just calling the '/usr/bin/xdriinfo' command from glx-utils, which is built from the mesa package. 

The fix likely needs to be there.

Comment 2 Eddie Lania 2009-04-12 19:14:16 UTC
So it seems:

xdriinfo 
Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
Screen 0: not direct rendering capable.

Happy Easter.

Fixed in 7.5-0.10, to be included in F11 gold.

Comment 5 Eddie Lania 2009-05-08 15:04:40 UTC
What might "F11 gold" be?

Comment 6 Kevin Fenzi 2009-05-08 15:45:17 UTC
The final real release of Fedora 11 (after alpha, beta, snapshots, preview, rc's).
