and nothing in /dev/dri, which may explain:
(II) fglrx(0): UMM area: 0xc08f7000 (size=0x076f9000)
(II) fglrx(0): driver needs X.org 6.8.x
(II) fglrx(0): detected X.org 6.8.2
(II) Loading extension ATIFGLRXDRI
(II) fglrx(0): doing DRIScreenInit

(WW) fglrx(0): * no 3D acceleration available *

(this is from /var/log/Xorg.0.log)
and, finally:
[fglrx:firegl_stub_register] *ERROR* Unable to the open some already present
DRM kernel module!
So, what am I doing wrong?
The drm module seems to be the problem child, once I added that, fglrx got
tempermental...
