hello, i've been trying to get ati's proprietary drivers to work on my amd64 install for some time now. my ati-driver port can be found in the contrib64 repo among with it's dependencies. but i just cant get the acceleration working so i'm hoping anyone here got any ideas... there is a thread on the gentoo forums: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-377790.html that resembles my problem. the drivers installed ok, the fglrx module is loaded ok (nothing funny in dmesg), and according to the x log drm is loaded ok and everything is accelerated. xorg.conf is set to use internalagp etc. but, fglrxinfo says mesa and glxinfo says no direct rendering. glxgears is ~480fps on my ati x850xt which seems just a bit to slow... from what i've understood from the gentoo thread someone had the same problem because of some side issue of having gcc 3.3.x installed. but this is a fresh system (danm's iso) running gcc 3.4.4. can anyone see if the issue in the thread relates to crux in any way or have any other ideas as to what could be the problem here? cheers, lars
