About ATI drivers and xorg.conf
Hi
a few days ago I'm trying to operate a card
Technologies Inc R200 BB [Radeon All in Wonder 8500DV]
Use Debian squeeze
I managed to run the ati-driver-installer-8.38.6-4 and generated
x86.x86_64.run
packages. deb and dpkg install.
After having generated this run
but when I run glxinfo | grep render me back
Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting
LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
    GLX_ATI_pixel_format_float, GLX_ATI_render_texture
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R200 (R200 4242) 20090101 x86/MMX/SSE2
TCL DRI2
the xorg.conf configuration file
Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "Default Layout"
        Screen      0  "aticonfig-Screen[0]" 0 0
        InputDevice    "Generic Keyboard"
        InputDevice    "Configured Mouse"
        Option            "AIGLX" "true"
EndSection
Section "Files"
EndSection
Section "Module"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "aticonfig-Monitor[0]"
        Option            "VendorName" "ATI Proprietary Driver"
        Option            "ModelName" "Generic Autodetecting Monitor"
        Option            "DPMS" "true"
EndSection
Section "Device"
        Identifier  "aticonfig-Device[0]"
        Driver      "fglrx"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
        Identifier "aticonfig-Screen[0]"
        Device     "aticonfig-Device[0]"
        Monitor    "aticonfig-Monitor[0]"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
        EndSubSection
EndSection
Section "DRI"
        Mode         0666
EndSection
On the other hand I tried to convert and install the 2 files the free and
not free from ATI and I could not.
   fglrx64_4_3_0-8.28.8-1.x86_64.rpm and fglrx64_6_8_0-8.28.8-1.x86_64.rpm
Thanks in advance
