X.Org FGLRX Brekdown

[Tucker Hermans <thermans at bowdoin dot edu>]

Hey guys,

I am running Debian testing with an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro.  I had graphics 
working great with 3D acceleration until X got switched to X.org, when 
direct rendering stopped working.  I tried installing the new packages 
generated from the ATI installer and would boot up to a black screen.  I 
decided to update my kernel to 2.6.13.4 from 2.6.7 (for various 
reasons).  I then built the driver module and installed flavio's 
binaries.  Still no 3D acceleration, but graphics worked.  Last night I 
went through an entire reinstall of the fglrx driver, building my own 
packages from the source provided by flavio's site.  Still no direct 
rendering.  I have dug through so many tutorials and FAQ's and can not 
diagnose the problem.

Output of LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose fglrxinfo:

libGL error: XF86DRIQueryDirectRenderingCapable returned false
