ATI Drivers Radeon HD 4600 AGP - Error: unable to open display (NULL)
 
Hi, I'm new user on linux and Slackware, since two years ago, and I apreciate the guides that i found in linuxquestions page, are helpfull for me, but now i try to install the ATI propietary drivers on Slackware 13.37 after make the package install and change the Xorg.conf with aticonfig --initial, then I run the flgrxinfo for test the installation and give me a Error: unable to open display (NULL), do you can help me to find where is the error if you have some experience whit ATI drivers on Slackware.

Thanks!

Did you actually start X after changing the xorg.conf file? In fact, you probably have to reboot to disable the radeon kernel driver and then start X.
