I have purged patched fglrx and run the one from the repo. No problems with dkms. However, I don't know if I messed something up, or if somehow a regression got introduced, but my glxinfo says I am rendering indirect now. I have tried the suggestions on the unofficial linux driver wiki, but not getting anywhere. Here is what I am seeing: ~$ LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose fglrxinfo libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/fglrx/dri/tls/swrast_dri.so libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/fglrx/dri/swrast_dri.so libGL error: dlopen /usr/lib/fglrx/dri/swrast_dri.so failed (/usr/lib/fglrx/dri/swrast_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib32/fglrx/dri/tls/swrast_dri.so libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib32/fglrx/dri/swrast_dri.so libGL error: dlopen /usr/lib32/fglrx/dri/swrast_dri.so failed (/usr/lib32/fglrx/dri/swrast_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so libGL error: reverting to indirect rendering display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.

Now when I create a symlink in the location that the libGL is looking for swrast_dri.so, to its actual location, I get an error like this: $ LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose fglrxinfolibGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/fglrx/dri/tls/swrast_dri.so libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/fglrx/dri/swrast_dri.so Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual! and this from glxgears: Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual -- [MASTER] package fglrx 2:8.723.1-0ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: Kernel fix for CVE-2010-3081 breaks fglrx https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/642518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
