hi everybody,
This is the first time that i use linux, and I have encounter some problem when i tried to install my fglrx driver for my radeon 9800 xt on fedora core 6.
I am using the driver from the livna.org
First i install the livna packet in console (without starting X)
rpm -ivh livna-release-6.rpm
then i install the fglrx driver
yum install glx-utils
yum install kmod-fglrx
and it installs some dependencies with the driver
since i have 2 monitors, i use aticonfig --initial=dual-head
Then i startx.
I turns out that driver does not work properly.
this is my fglrxinfo
libGL error: failed to open DRM: Operation not permitted
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering
