Re: I can't configure and create xorg.conf [ATI drivers]

Well, this one:

[root@nube jack]# glxinfo
glxinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libGLU.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Means that mesa is improperly installed.  Try reinstalling it with pacman -S mesa

This:

[jack@nube ~]$ fglrxinfo
Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".

Generally means you didn't load the dri module in your xorg.conf - look in the modules section and make sure the lines:

    Load  "glx"
    Load  "dri"

are there.

After you check these, try again and see if it helps at all.

Re: I can't configure and create xorg.conf [ATI drivers]

Allrighty, calm down there.  I'm trying to help, you're snapping my head off.

Did you try reinstalling mesa like I said?  Did that make any difference? Just FYI: glxinfo and fglrxinfo will only work once you have your x-server running, so they will always report no GL acceleration if you run them without X running.

-edit-  By the way, you can try creating an initial xorg.conf by using 

hwd -x

and see if that works.

Re: I can't configure and create xorg.conf [ATI drivers]

You need to install hwd:

# pacman -S hwd

You can also use:

# X -configure

to create a xorg.conf
