13 I think the missing dri stuff is normal when suing the closed source
14 drivers, as they have this built in. I think I had them, too, and I do not

17 Has the fglrx kernel module been loaded at all, does lsmod | grep fglrx
18 show it? If so, what are the dmesg messages when the module was loaded? I
19 had these messages, whenI was using the ati-drivers:
20
21 [fglrx] Maximum main memory to use for locked dma buffers: 3674 MBytes.
22 [fglrx] vendor: 1002 device: 9610 count: 1
23 [fglrx] ioport: bar 1, base 0xee00, size: 0x100
24 pci 0000:01:05.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ 18
25 pci 0000:01:05.0: setting latency timer to 64
