Compiz Fusion,XGL and ATI X300se problem

[ludovic23]

Hello ppl,

Am new to this forum i just install ubuntu and its a great OS i love it.
i have a little problem i install Compiz fusion and XGL on my PC using ATI X300SE
Its working but my direct rendering: No

when i type glxinfo | grep rendering i got this error anybody can help me on this?

Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0".
direct rendering: No

This can be a right pain in the rear to sort out. Personally I am waiting for the new 8.42 drivers from ATI which supposedly support compiz without XGL - i.e. straight out of the box.

They are due in the next few days (supposedly again). If they do turn up and they work expect lots of comments on the forums!

ludovic23, please log into your regular session (not Xgl) and run
fglrxinfo

[ludovic23]

i got this when i type fglrxinfo

display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: Radeon X300/X550/X1050 Series
OpenGL version string: 2.0.6747 (8.40.4)

And what gives glxinfo | grep "direct rendering" now (in your regular session)?

rjbgbo@rjbgbo-desktop:~$ glxinfo | grep "direct rendering"
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0".
direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
