libtxc_dxtn & mesa problem

[ruthr]

Hello

I installed libtxc_dxtn but I have a problem with the mesa.

Export MESA_DEBUG = 1
$ gears
Mesa warning: could not open libtxc_dxtn.so, DXTn software compression / decompression unavailable

ldconfig-r | grep libtxcn_dxtn* does not show that libtxc_dxtn.so installed unless I change name to libtxc_dxtn.so.1

$ ldconfig-r | grep libtxc_dxtn *
586:-ltxc_dxtn.1 => / usr/local/lib/libtxc_dxtn.so.1

I made a symbolic link to libtxc_dxtn.so but nothing works.

$ ls-al libtxc_dxtn*
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 16 Oct 14 01:58 libtxc_dxtn.so -> libtxc_dxtn.so.1
-Rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 17 229 Oct 14 15:35 libtxc_dxtn.so.1

Any suggestions?

I'm also keen to get this working with an ATI card. What card are you using?

I recall having the same experience as you. Apparently it's [post=102273]simply not possible[/post] right now.
