glxgears problem


Hello all,

when I type 'glxgears' into a terminal console, I get the following error:

Code:
glxgears: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/xorg/libGL.so.1: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission Denied
Supertux also returns same message when trying to run Supertux.


Distro is Fedora Core 6, Graphics card is an ATI, xorg.conf specifies 'radeon' driver currently.

Regards,
Greenie

just something - are you running glxgears as root ?

try reinstalling Xorg, it seems you have a dependency issue which, to the most part, are rather simple to fix. (use the FC package management system to make sure you do a good job).
