DRI and Slackware 9

Hey guys..im having problems playing 3D games under slackware 9.

I downloaded ET ( the free RTcW Game)

and the menu is SOOOOOO slow, it took me 5 minute to get my mouse in the QUIT button to quit.

And i guess i was told because its NOT using DRI?

i installed FGLRX drivers from ATI, and installed them.

I checked my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 , and it is set to use driver "fglrx"

Now, when i try to install DRI (from the DRI site, for Radeons)

It spits this at me:

Makefile.linux:137: *** Cannot find a kernel config file. Stop.

This is the folder it is wanting to use:

/lib/modules/2.4.20

Checked that directory and it exists, and contains a kernel file and bunch of other stuff.


Any make on this?

Thanks.

Matt
