Cannot seem to find where the original howto is, but the steps it recommended were:
sudo aptitude purge xorg-driver-fglrx sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg select 'vesa' driver sudo aptitude install xorg-driver-fglrx sudo aticonfig --initial --overlay-type=Xv That didn't work, OpenGL vendor string would remain as Mesa. So, you were right, I then tried what this thread suggested: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185033 But alone that didn't help either, until I did what I said in the bug report. Thus I'm not sure why replacing the libGL.so.1.2 had removed atiogl_a_dri.so from /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri, but maybe that's not what you meant. -- Driver installed in a wrong location https://launchpad.net/bugs/49900 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
