Anyone know how to get the new ATI drivers working properly?
sorry about all that other stuff.
try glxgears to see if you get 3d support.
this is important:
glxgears works without 3d support - it's software rendered. To test if your 3d stuff is working you need to do this:
* open glxgears, it should appear as a normal window
* move it so you can see the FPS output in your term window
* maximize your window
* count to 10 or 15 (slowly)
* restore the window
* the FPS when the window was max'ed should be about the same as when the window was normal
if the FPS change dramatically (2500 fps to 15 fps), then you don't have 3d support.
Also check your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file.
use less
goto the end of the file
* press capital G
search backwards for "DRI"
* press question mark ? * type DRI * hit [ENTER]
You should see this:
(II) fglrx(0): [DRI] installation complete (II) fglrx(0): Direct rendering enabled
