Hello list,
I've been trying to enable direct rendering, and followed
most thanked directions on ubuntuforums, but so far
nothing works. My steps taken:
1. sudo aptitude purge xorg-driver-fglrx
2. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
choosing vesa driver
3. sudo aptitude install xorg-driver-fglrx
4. sudo aticonfig --initial --overlay-type=Xv
5 sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf
adding Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "no"
6. sudo depmod -a (and without -a flag)
7. sudo modprobe fglrx
8. reboot
This was the latest attempt, before that I had found some
slightly differing methods, which all ended in the same
results:
jaska at jjod600n:~$ glxinfo
name of display: :0.0
display: :0 screen: 0
direct rendering: No
What else can I still try? I've verified the graphics
adapter:
jaska at jjod600n:~$ lspci | grep ATI
0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies
Inc Radeon R250 Lf [FireGL 9000] (rev 02)
My system is:
jaska at jjod600n:~$ uname -a
Linux jjod600n 2.6.15-23-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue May 23
14:03:07 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
And restricted-modules are installed:
jaska at jjod600n:~$ apt-cache policy
linux-restricted-modules-686
linux-restricted-modules-686:

The funny thing is:
jaska at jjod600n:~$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log

But, still when I do:

display: :0.0 screen: 0

OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.4.1)
So, does anyone have any clue to what goes wrong in my
system? I'd appreciate all hints and tips. Thanks a lot in
advance! :)
