Fglrx error on t43

I've been experimenting with not using a display manager, and caught this is the process:

(EE)AIGLX error: dlsym for _driCreateNewScreen_20050727 failed (/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/fglrx_dri.so: undefined symbo: _driCreateNewScreen_20050727)
(EE)AIGLX: reverting to software rendering.

I'm on an IBM t43 with ATI w/ Radeon x300. Here's my xorg:

Re: Fglrx error on t43

That's because fglrx doesn't support the extensions required to run AIGLX - it's a common error that doesn't really hurt.

You can disable AIGLX by adding

 Option "AIGLX" "off"

to your ServerFlags section.
