ATI on Debian, driver stopped working

MaTrIx709 · 11-26-2006, 04:19 AM

Hey all.

I'd installed the Debian Non-free ATI driver, and all was well.

After a few reboots, I noticed that the screen was refreshing as quickly as usual. I ran glxinfo and now direct rendering doesn't seem to be working.

Code:

gav@r2d2:~$ glxinfo |grep direct
Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
direct rendering: No
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
gav@r2d2:~$

I don't know where to begin to troubleshoot this problem. Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

First off, what's your X version
Post up your xorg.conf please
and do a login to konsole, and then run startx, then post the end of /var/log/Xorg.0.log
