-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi. I've been having problems with my ati graphics, and tried the proprietary drivers from AMD without success. However, when I went back to the pre-compiled drivers available in Lenny, video sucked even worse.
It seems in my attempt to take out the precompiled drivers to try the ones from AMD, and then back, the "glx" module was lost: /var/log/Xorg.o.log: (II) LoadModule: "glx" (WW) Warning, couldn't open module glx (II) UnloadModule: "glx" (EE) Failed to load module "glx" (module does not exist, 0) Here are a couple of package searches that seemed appropriate, to see if anything was obviously missing: # dpkg -l | grep glx ii fglrx-glx 1:8-12-4 proprietary libGL for the non-free AMD/ATI r ii libgl1-mesa-glx 7.0.3-7 A free implementation of the OpenGL API -- G # dpkg -l | grep mesa ii libgl1-mesa-dri 7.0.3-7 A free implementation of the OpenGL API -- D ii libgl1-mesa-glx 7.0.3-7 A free implementation of the OpenGL API -- G ii libglu1-mesa 7.0.3-7 The OpenGL utility library (GLU) ii mesa-utils 7.0.3-7 Miscellaneous Mesa GL utilities The various mesa utilities all report "extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"" which is kind of obvious. But they worked the first time I installed the non-free fglrx drivers. I've looked for "missing dependencies" and found nothing obviously missing, and apt would (I expect) have pointed out a gross error, so obviously the missing glx driver isn't obvious. Or at least not obvious to me. Any suggestions as to packages I should have that I can verify?
