Update Issues fglrx - 8.40.4 and another things ........

The old bug is back sad

http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=34981
Everytime when I change to another user account with out reboot the computer or if I am back from Powersafe mode "stand by" and need to log in new, the openGL Provieder, Version & Renderer has changed to Mesa.
PCIe ATI Radeon X300 (Dell Dimension 8400)

OpenGL Version 2.0.6747 (8.40.4)

with the latest fglrx driver 8.39.4 all was working fine smile

Re: Update Issues fglrx - 8.40.4 and another things ........

Can you post the output from

LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo

before, and after, the issue happens?

Re: Update Issues fglrx - 8.40.4 and another things ........

Darn, that wasn't as helpful as I'd hoped... I assume you log in through a graphical login manager, like KDM or GDM, correct?  So, when you log out, you log out back to _DM? I'm going to search for some solutions for you.  wink

Just FYI, here's the symptom error message:

libGL error: XF86DRIQueryDirectRenderingCapable returned false
libGL error: XF86DRIQueryDirectRenderingCapable returned false

Essentially, after you log in as a different user, the X server says you're no longer capable of DRI.

Re: Update Issues fglrx - 8.40.4 and another things ........

Oh, after you log out, then log back in, are there any errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log?

to check, use

grep "EE" /var/log/Xorg.0.log

graphical login manager = KDM
XDM frozen
Goggle Earth Frozen
HP Printer Problem
Amarok 1.4.7 doesn't play all Radio stations "No suitable demux plugin. This often means that the file format is not supported"

all this was working fine before.


At the moment I am a little disapointed with Archlinux. On my Laptop, several things don't work anymore including madwifi .... sad
