Re: 3D not working - no errors though?

Thanks for the tip! I really don't understand exactly what is going on, 
but suddenly, after several weeks of trying, it justed started working. I 
noticed that the files

/etc/fglrxprofiles.csv
/etc/fglrxrc

were missing on my system, and this was the reason that glxinfo reported 
only Mesa drivers. I uninstalled Flavio's packages, and installed 
the official ATI package, which contains these files. I had done this a 
hundred times, but this times it just worked! Well, I'm not complaining.

Cheers,
Mathijs
