i have a radeon x1800 card and use dual monitors with xinerama.

when i try to start the catalyst control-center the following happens:

Code:
~ $ amdcccle
Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
Segmentation fault


well, dri only works on one display when using xinerama - but how can i start the catalyst control center?

hi,

First what version of ati-drivers are you using?

2nd there is a newer version available, check amd.com

3rd, we can*t do much, because it*s a closed source software package => binary :(

2nd: no, it's the same version

3rd: i know, but maybe someone has run accross the same problem. after all radeon-cards are not so uncommon.

hi, i had the same problem with version 8.42.3

Code:
$ eselect opengl set ati


after that, there was a problem with libGL (it needs .so.1 but only .so is linked in 8.42.3 ebuild :roll: )
Code:
$ ln -s libGL.so /usr/lib/libGL.so.1


now it works for me 8)
