Re: X.Org FGLRX Brekdown

Hi,

I've been having a similiar problem with x.org for a while now. But from
your email I figured out for me its the permissions on
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/.

They where 700 so I changed them to 755.


I was getting this before the change:
jason at liws01:~$ LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose fglrxinfo
libGL: XF86DRIGetClientDriverName: 8.18.6 atiogl_a (screen 0)
libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/atiogl_a_dri.so
libGL error: dlopen /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/atiogl_a_dri.so failed

AND after:
