Well, I've now narrowed it down to permissions. I didn't install the |
| 115 |
drivers off of nvidias site as they are the same version. Perusing the |
| 116 |
nvidia linux forum I came across a post that made me want to do |
| 117 |
glxgears again. I was root on that console due to just having emerged |
| 118 |
something, and DRI works fine. I'm going to poke some stuff with chmod |
| 119 |
and restart, but if any know what might be the difference that allows |
| 120 |
root to do it I'd love to hear it. |
