Re: Ati + xorg-7 no 3D **need helping Hands**

Try this:
1. pacman -R ati-drivers ati-drivers-archck
2. rm -r /usr/X11R6 (don't worry, after installing Xorg7, this is safe)
3. ln -s /usr /usr/X11R6
4. ln -s /usr/lib/xorg/modules /usr/X11R6/lib/modules
5. pacman -Sy ati-drivers ati-drivers-archck

Do this outside of X. Got my 3D accel running just fine :-)

NOTE: IIRC, that should be correct. I'm not at my computer at home, so I'm not sure the paths are right, but they do look like they are. Someone correct this if I'm wrong.

It should be all good, though.

8)  Good info to have.  Thanks for the post Postlogic.  Looking through all the other posts I found this and figured I had messed my system up and this thoroughly restores it.  One Gold Star!

I also first had problem getting ati + xorg7 working, but I just used the graphical installer from ati, that solved my problem :-)
