or something like that

I think i messed something up. I get this error now when running fglrxinfo

fglrxinfo
fglrxinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This happens to every application, regnum as well

mcflow@errorkiste:~$ whereis libGL.so.1
libGL.so: /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/libGL.so

But the lib exists...
Any idea?

OMG, all I was looking for was opinions, something better came out. Some got their ati problem fixed, well I'm very pleased I playd a tiny bit in this good to see your fps owning

oh yeah and myxir, you have to set a variable for that, can't remember how to do it though, I miss linux

i have this

   0 lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root       26 2007-09-12 17:56 libGL.so -> /usr/lib/xorg/libGL.so.1.2
    0 lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root       26 2007-09-12 17:56 libGL.so.1 -> /usr/lib/xorg/libGL.so.1.2

try doing a simbolic link like:

ln -s /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 /us/lib/libGL.so (or where u have it)

in my case i have the files in /usr/lib/xorg/ because im using slackware

_= D of S =_/usr/lib$ ls -las | grep libGL.so

16720 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17104118 2007-09-12 17:56 /usr/lib/xorg/libGL.so.1.2

locate libGL.so.1.2

libGL.so.1 must be a symbolic link to libGL.so.1.2
libGL.so must be a symbolic link to libGL.so.1

Thank you, you're a genious that is fixed...
But now I got a new problem
Xserver won't start when I use fglrx.
the log of xorg tells me that there is no device at pci 1:0:1... I never entered this number anywhere.... it's 1:0:0. It also tells me no screens found. something is wrong.....
I forgot to copy the log when i was in tty1. I made a startx after i made x using vesa.
I think i gonna give it up.
I installed 8.41 the same way I installed 8.40.4 yesterday.

try doing after install (before install make sure that your X server is down):

aticonfig --initial
aticonfig --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf

which distro linux are u using?

reboot and post if u see something wrong at the output of dmesg

[Myxir]

Thanks again,
I did what you said but the same results like before.
xorg.log tells me:

(WW)fglrx: No matching Device section for interface (BUS ID PCI:1:0:1) found
(EE)fgrlx(0) atiddxDri Screeninit failed GPS not been initialised.

I use Ubuntu Feisty Fawn (7.04)

do u have the fglrx module loaded?

see it doing:

lsmod | grep fglrx

if not do this and try again (without rebooting):

modprobe fglrx

[Myxir]

As usually i landed in tty1...
I did
lsmod |grep fglrx
and i had no output.
then i loaded the module with sudo modprobe fglrx
i had no output here too.
Finally i did lsmod |grep fglrx again...
no output too.
lol, doesn't that mean that fglrx is not installed?!
I'll reload the installer tomorrow... maybe there is an error or someting...
