DDX driver error with ATI Radeon 9500

DyingMuppet · 10-16-2006, 02:52 AM

HI everyone,
I posted this before in the fedora forums on LQ but didn´t got any succes.

when I run fglrxinfo in a terminal, I get the following:

Code:

[root@DyingMuppet ~]# fglrxinfo
ERROR: DDX driver fingerprint mismatch: got 0x84220BA7, but expected 0x781B6E97
libGL error: InitDriver failed
display: :0.0  screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.4.2)

First time I got the same error but without the Mesa stuff, then I tried to install OpenGL, where I don't know if it was succesfull.

I have Fedora Core 5 running on my system with the 2.6.17-1.2187_FC5 x86_64 kernel
and I have an ATI Radeon 9500 AGP 8x videocard

I'm using Fedora Core 5 for a while now but I'm a bit stuck with this error..
can somebody tell me how to fix this??

Grtz. DM

Hi all,

there's nothing to matter anymore I updated FC5 to kernel 2.6.18-1.2200 x86_64 and the error doesn't appear anymore now it says:

Code:

[root@DyingMuppet ~]# fglrxinfo
display: :0.0  screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: RADEON 9550 Generic
OpenGL version string: 2.0.6065 (8.29.6)

so everything is set and done for now
