Hopefully this is the right group to post this question.
In order to properly configure DRI to on I have been using this
excellent guide.
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ATI_Radeon_%26_Kernel_2.6#Configuration
Everything was going well until this point in the guide:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Having trouble getting direct rendering working? Run
$ LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo
at the command prompt. At the very start of the output, usually it'll
give you a nice error message saying why you don't have direct
rendering.
Common errors, and their solutions, are:
libGL error: XF86DRIQueryDirectRenderingCapable returned false
* Ensure you are loading the correct agp modules for your AGP
chipset before you load the fglrx kernel module. To determine which agp
modules you'll need, run hwdetect --show-agp, then ensure that all
modules listed from that command are in the MODULES= array in rc.conf,
before fglrx.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LIBGL_DEGUB did indeed return the above error. The guide says to run
hwdetect --show-agp. This command dosn't work on my system and I can't
seem to find the hwdetect package. Also, I have tried to locate
rc.conf in order to see what modules are loading without success.
The linux distribution is Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.
Any help pointing me in the right direction will be greatly appreciated.
