Hi Community

After switching back from ATI Opensource drivers to fglrx I've got huge problems getting applications to work that use the following libraries:

Code:
libGL.so, libGL.so.1, libGL.so.1.2


That is amlost all apps used in Xorg an Xfce.

The general error is:
Code:
Cannot open shared library libGL.so.1 no such file or directory


I tried to create the symlinks manualy:
Code:
/usr/lib/libGL.so -> /usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib/libGL.so
/usr/lib/libGL.so.1 -> /usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib/libGL.so.1
/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 -> /usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib/libGL.so.1.2


But then when I use some applications (e.g. glxinfo) my system completly freezes. My screen is getting wierd! I've got a strange slow changing color scheme.

I must be doing something terribly wrong.
Xorg's TWM loads the fglrx driver correctly, no Errors in Xorg.log.
Fglrx compiles cleanly, module is loaded.
No Graphics drivers in Kernel, yet i've compiled in AGPGART and INTEL 440x Chipset drivers.

I would be grateful for any assistance.

Thank you

Same problem here for xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r2. For 1.4 it was running OK, but with no AIGLX support (3D acceleration OK)

EDIT: Uninstalled ati-catalyst, remerged mesa and xorg-server but system freezes everytime when starting any 3D application :/ I'm going back to xorg-7.3

I had the missing libGL.so.1 display when trying to fire up Terminal in Xfce (and possibly others). Fix for me was to run "revdep-rebuild -i --library=libGL.so.1"

Note the "-i" option. I ran without it a few times and it did not fix the problem.
