XBMC needs hardware accelerated OpenGl rendering

[papilello]

I've just started working with Sabayon KDE on my old DELL inspiron 1100 and it works very good; I can say that's the best distribution I've ever tryed on my computer.
The only problem, at the moment, is that XBMC doesn't work because it needs hardware accelerated OpenGl rendering.
I haven't understood what is the driver I'm supposed to install, but I remeber that when I started using sabayon 5 GNOME, a couple of years ago, on the same PC, XBMC used to work wery well.
How can I try to solve this minor problem, with no risks for the wonderful stability that my Dell has now?

thanks
