    I'm using FC2 with the latest fglrx driver for radeon cards. Everything gets
    detected okay, but when I try to run GL apps like glxgears it runs for about
    20 seconds then X locks up. 2D seems to work fine. fgl_glxgears gives me
    frame rates of around 230-280 fps. glxgears reports 1100+ fps. glxinfo
    reports DRI is enabled.

    I followed all the directions in the forums but still I have the same problem.
    Could someone lead me in the right direction. I desperately want to get my
    winex and Neverwinter Nights (linux client) back up and running.

    Using: AMD Athlon-XP 2400+/1 GB RAM/256MB 3x AGP Radeon 9200se (off brand:
    Saphire)/SOYO KT600 Dragon Plus V1.0 Motherboard (Via chipset)

    Latest FC2 updates and fglrx-4.3.0-3.9.0.rpm with the fglrx-3.9.0-fc2.patch
    install as well as the patch from
    http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2004-June/msg00945.html

    Kernel Version = Linux version 2.6.6-1.435 (bhcompile@tweety.build.redhat.com)

    dmesg has the following:
