How do you remove MESA drivers?

[DOS4dinner]

I got my drivers setup thanks to envy. However, it still says that I am using the MESA drivers for OpenGL stuff. How do I change that?

My machine:
Pentium 4 @2.6 ghz
ATI Radeon 9800 pro 128mb
1 gig of RAM

Thanks in advance.

Here is my xorg.0.log, if it helps:

Hi and I am using a ATI 9600 on Hardy and it still say mesa on the glxinfo. But the desktop effects work but I have not played any games.
Well sort of but that is another story.

Try doing a

sudo modprobe fglrx

and then

sudo depmod -a

. The 'fglrx' kernel module might not be loaded so X reverts to inderect rendering. There is no reason to remove mesa.

Tried it, did not do a thing. Frets on Fire and the fancy screensavers still run at a crawl and it still says I am using mesa.

try method 2 if method one fails (worked for me and at least 2 more)

I was afraid it would come to that. I used the envy installer, and the ATI catalyst control center found my card just fine, but it just is using mesa for OpenGL instead of my ATI card. I hoped that there would be just some way of switching what openGL driver it uses.

I will wait a bit before I do that, though. Hopefully someone will have an answer.
