Subject: fglrx-driver: flgrx fully broken by new xorg versioning policy Package: fglrx-driver Version: 8.28.8-4 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
*** Please type your report below this line *** Hi, fglrx now fails to load because /usr/bin/Xorg -version answers 1.3.0 (I used to answer 7.1.0). See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=420306 to unserstand that it is not a bug but a better versioning policy. However, it prevents fglrx to work : (II) LoadModule: "fglrx" (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//fglrx_drv.so (II) Module fglrx: vendor="FireGL - ATI Technologies Inc." compiled for 7.1.0, module version = 8.28.8 Module class: X.Org Video Driver ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 1.0 [R200Setup] X version mismatch - detected X.org 1.3.0.0, required X.org 7.1.0.0 (II) UnloadModule: "fglrx" (II) Unloading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//fglrx_drv.so (EE) Failed to load module "fglrx" (module requirement mismatch, 0) I cannot see a simple patch to solve the pb for now :( BTW, I have also tried this an up to date fglrx driver and the pb is the same.
