ATI Radeon Issues on AMD64 Fedora Core 5


(hope this is the right forum)

Howdy folks,

I'm a bit of a linux newbie, so please bare with me.
I have an AMD64 compaq laptop with an ATI Radeon Xpress 200m on board. I installed the ati drivers via yum (kmod-fglrx or whatever it is, and the xorg drivers to go with it, both 64bit and 32bit.) and my OpenGL stuff appears to be working (glxinfo is good, direct rendering is enabled, fglrxinfo states I'm using the ATI drives, fgl_glxgears runs smoothly, though I suspect a bit slow) BUT games like bzflag, or anything that uses d3d/opengl over wine (i.e. Age of empires 2!!!) shoots back with the following error:

X Error of failed request: GLXBadContext
Major opcode of failed request: 143 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent)
Serial number of failed request: 22
Current serial number in output stream: 22


My kernel version is 2.6.17-1.2157_FC5

glxinfo reports the following:

Are the ATI drivers that you installed the proprietary drivers from ATI? If I remember correctly, FC5 doesn't work well with those and has its own drivers instead. You should be able to go to the details regarding this from http://fedora.redhat.com

Those are probably the proprietary drivers that FC5 would have a problem with. You want to go to the details regarding the proprietary drivers by going to http://fedora.redhat.com
