I just installed the latest ATI driver from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/X/XFree86/ATI/suse91/fglrx/3.9.0 I had the previous version 3.7.6 of the driver installed but /usr/X11/bin/fgl_glxgears didn't work then - exited immediately with "Error: couldn't get fbconfig" It now works - on 1st installation attempt. I've posted about this before but here's what I did this time in case usefull to someone having trouble with this as I had. The data of my box - ATI 9600, ASUS A7N8X, AMD 2700 and SuSE 9.1 fully YOU updated including the lastest kernel kernel-source-2.6.5-7.75 kernel-default-2.6.5-7.75 a) First I removed Mesa rpm -e --nodeps XFree86-Mesa-devel-4.3.99.902-40 rpm -e --nodeps XFree86-Mesa-4.3.99.902-40 b) reboot c) I then installed the driver exactly as stated in the README. In addition but maybe not necessary I re-generated the /etc/X11/XF86Config running /usr/X11/bin/fglrxconfig - automatically getting the line Load "dri" as specified in 4) of the README. Noteworthy is maybe this line (allthough maybe already default) Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "no" d) reboot e) Lastly I installed the above removed Mesa packages from the DVD using YaST. I've attached a ksnapshot of the fgl_glxgears - a rotating cube of rotating gears - in reduced size. In it's natural size fully exposed it is showing 315 FPS with the box doing nothing else. Don't know if that's good or bad.
