Thats all it gave me I typed vim Xorg.0.log | grep "EE"

Have you tried rebooting now, to see if the aticonfig changes allowed the drivers to load properly?

Are you going to try using the official driver against from www.ati.com instead of Livna RPMs?

[cheesewedge85]

let me try removing the livna RPM's and and try reinstalling with aticonfig
I will tell you what happens

[cheesewedge85]

I am back to where I started, except that fireglcontrolpanel doesn't work anymore
and when I try to install the fglrx from the repository it tells me that I need to download the linux kernel and then gives me an error saying that I already have it, yup no kidding!

I just can't figure out how to switch from the mesa opengl to ATI opengl

To switch you should just need to configure your xorg.conf (using aticonfig --initial) after you have installed the drivers.

If you have installed the drivers, configured X, and you are still running into problems, check your Xorg.0.log for errors.
