Sys_Error: GLimp_Init() - could not load OpenGL subsystem


Im getting this on Mandrake 9.1 any idea how to fix it ?

What kind of system and graphics card are you running on?

I may be off but it seems like it can't get X to run in 800X600 or 640X480

Geforce 4
Latest Drivers
Driver instalation ok

Hell .. i've had the same .. i'm using an Ati Radeon 8500.
I Fixed it by installing som rpms with rpmdrake, but now here's the next problem:
right after mouse initialisation it goes like:


XFree86-VidModeExtension Activated at 800x600
Loading required GL library /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2
Using 8/8/8 Color bits, 16 depth, 0 stencil display.
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
GL_RENDERER: Mesa GLX Indirect

***********************************************************
You are using software Mesa (no hardware acceleration)!
Driver DLL used: libGL.so.1
If this is intentional, add
"+set r_allowSoftwareGL 1"
to the command line when starting the game.

XFree86-VidModeExtension Activated at 640x480
Received signal 11, exiting...

But the thin is ... Xfree86 4.3 says, that 3d acceleration works with my video card... i have mesa installed, and so on.. but it just don't work! and there is no "XFree86-DRI" in the rpm database and no Xlib bla...
there's only a glide-dri thingie ... but that is for 3dfx/voodoo chipsets...

We need help here, please ;-)


greetings

so now after a bit reading and googling, i have found that you have to have the entry Load "dri" in your /etc/X11/XFree86config-X under section MODULE..
like:


Section "Module"
Load "dbe" # Double-Buffering Extension
Load "v4l" # Video for Linux
Load "extmod"
Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
Load "glx" # 3D layer
# Direct Rendering interface
Load "dri"
EndSection

the only changed thing is the bold



and add this also:

Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection




have fun..

Well that didnt work now Linux dont load lol anyone know how to get back into Linux as it just gows to black screen with Login then when you enter the info it just says info from when you last logged in :/

oh lol

if you have a bootloader like lilo, enter "linux 1" and press enter.
sure, without the "" ... this way you will boot into runlevel 1.. it's single user, and without loading the X server (graphical user interface)

if it does not work, try pressing alt+ctrl+1 at once, it will switch to a console without X

then undo the changes in your xfree config file

and just reboot.. ( enter "init 6" as root )

......
hope you'll get it..


greetings

Ok i will give it a try lol i will let you know if it works

Hmm didnt seem to work, i did reinstall the drivers from the console it gives you but that didnt work eather.
Maybe im doing what you said wrong like enter the command at the option to select boot OS ? but there is no box to enter it if you know what i mean lol, anyway as im sorta new to Linux you might need to explane more.

you say you installed from console.. so, if you can get into the console, why don't just just do

su
cd /etc/X11
ls -l

look for the XFree86Condig-X file (X is a number)
and type
vim yourconfigfile


remove the DRI stuff you have added
and finally type
init 1
to shut down X and so on,
then hold a sec, and type
init 5


and when you got X running go to mandrake control center and search for the boot menu loader, and set it to text-menu .. it's much better than the graphical sh*t mandrake usually enables by default. and if so, select vga mode 791 .. this way you have the console in 1024x768 pixels..

cya

Tryed it, and didnt work anyway i got it working now lol

Hey,
Can you tell me how, because I have exactly the same problem.

Tnx
