fglrx loads, but fools arround. Or something..

[ProbablyX]

Hello!

To make my problem short: If I run "vesa" as gfx driver I get ~800FPS in glxgears , same with fglrx which uses Mesa3D and not ATI (cant get it to change from Mesa :() also "radeon" wont load at all as it says there's no "valid Device section".

So, does anyone know how to either make radeon working or fglrx working? I've followed the guide found here in the FAQ forum but it didnt help (using livna RPMS) :(

This is my xorg.conf:

I'd be really happy if anoyone would be able to help me :)

Thanks!

Try checking you xorg.conf and add any missing sections i.e the aiglx section , composite section
