<title>Glamor Acceleration</title>
<para>
Glamor is an acceleration library which uses cards' 3D capabilities
to accelerate 2D rendering. Glamor acceleration is required for
Radeon "South Islands" GPUs which use "radeonsi" Gallium3D driver
from <xref linkend="mesalib"/>. To see which cards fall under
"South Islands" category, read the
<ulink url="&radeon-marketing-names;">
Decoder ring for engineering vs marketing names</ulink>. Please note
that Glamor acceleration can be used with other chips as well, but
it has not been tested recently.
</para>
<para>
Glamor acceleration is not enabled by default. You have to use a
<filename>xorg.conf</filename> file to enable it. To enable
Glamor, create the following
