Wow.. unsubscribe is kinda drastic... I'd end up with no dri and no one to
ask for help :)

My display is 0.0 (as you can see bellow the complete output of glxinfo.
I don't have specified the group in xorg, but I added my user to "video" and
set the mode to 0666 which allows all users...
it's hard to believe that's something to do with permissions.. but anyway,
I'll try it.. i don't have anything to loose.. Thanks!

Meanwhile, any other ideas?
