Solution for "AIGLX error"

This is not a request for help, but just a quick note that might help somebody else.

I got this error in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log:

(EE) AIGLX error: dlsym for __driCreateNewScreen_20050727 failed (/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/fglrx_dri.so: undefined symbol: __driCreateNewScreen_20050727)
(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering

The solution is to deactivate aiglx:

Section "ServerFlags"
    ...
    Option      "AIGLX" "off"
    ...
EndSection

(Thanks to http://geeks-have-feelings-too.net/ati- … newscreen/ for blogging about it )

Hope this can help someone
