ati-fglrx

Hi!

Update of ATI drivers this morning and problem again:

OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.4.2)

Thanks,

Re: ati-fglrx

pacman -S ati-fglrx ati-fglrx-utils

then make sure your symlink is in place, and check all the things you did last time.

I installed 8.22 drivers again and it works. I don't know what is wrong with new or with my system...

Re: ati-fglrx

lumiwa: When you update your drivers, can you give me the output of:

modprobe fglrx   (as root)
LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo
grep -e "(EE)|(WW)" /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Thanks

Could not init font path element /usr/share/fonts/encodings, removing from list!
Could not init font path element /usr/share/fonts/TTF, removing from list!

and

FreeFontPath: FPE "/usr/share/fonts/misc" refcount is 2, should be 1; fixing

I don't know if is above okay?

grep -e "(EE)|(WW)" /var/log/Xorg.0.log
        (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.

Problem with BusID I had on Debian and Linux too. It works.

Thanks.

Re: ati-fglrx

yeah, those look fine, lumiwa.  I figured it was the depmod thing (modprobe fglrx would have given that away - would have said FATAL: could not find module fglrx) -- the minor errors you've got there aren't anything to worry about.

Re: ati-fglrx

Ive uploaded new ones with fixed depmod. They'll propagate the mirrors and ought to work.
