 |
|
This is starting bug me.
As root
| Code: | localhost mark # fglrxinfo
display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: ATI MOBILITY RADEON 9600/9700 Series
OpenGL version string: 2.1.7659 Release
|
As user
| Code: | mark@localhost ~ $ fglrxinfo
libGL: XF86DRIGetClientDriverName: 8.50.3 fglrx (screen 0)
libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/dri/fglrx_dri.so
Segmentation fault |
I ran export LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose for running fglrxinfo above
User has permission to read fglrx_dri.so, and the dri line in xorg.conf is also ok.
| Code: | Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
Option "RENDER" "Enable"
Option "DAMAGE" "Enable"
EndSection
|
I keep thinking the drivers buggy, but if that was the case, then root would throw the same error right?
ati-drivers-8.471.3
I'm totally stumped.
edit: I forgot to mention that I'm using ati-drivers-8.501 (the most recent stable driver), but the same thing happens with ati-drivers-8.471.3 (the last stable driver)

that's interesting. I'll have a look into it when I get back from work this morning.
sorry to bump and old thread.
I ran strace
| Code: | execve("/usr/bin/glxinfo", ["glxinfo"], [/* 64 vars */]) = 0
brk(0) = 0x804e000
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xb7fb4000
access("/etc/ld.so.preload", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/usr/lib/xorg/tls/i686/sse2/libglut.so.3", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/usr/lib/xorg/tls/i686/sse2", 0xbf9cd178) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

stat64("/usr/lib/xorg/i686", 0xbf9cd178) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/usr/lib/xorg/sse2/libglut.so.3", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

stat64("/usr/lib/xorg", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY) = 3

but there's no dir under /usr/lib/xorg besides modules. So I'm not sure whats going on.
