I'm not sure if this is a packaging issue, or an issue with the driver itself. I am using the recently released AMD catalyst 13.8-beta driver for Fedora 19 (kernel 3.10.4-300).
The two issues are: 1) Something is pointing to the module in the wrong place (/usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/dri/fglrx_dri.so) instead of /usr/lib64/dri/fglrx_dri.so. 2) The permissions on /proc/ati/major seem to be incorrect. See the output from glxinfo below: $ LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo | head -5 libGL: AtiGetClientDriverName: 13.20.4 fglrx (screen 0) libGL error: OpenDriver: failed to open /usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/dri/fglrx_dri.so, error[/usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/dri/fglrx_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory] ukiDynamicMajor: failed to open /proc/ati/major Setting of real/effective user Id to 0/0 failed ukiDynamicMajor: failed to open /proc/ati/major ukiDynamicMajor: failed to open /proc/ati/major ukiDynamicMajor: failed to open /proc/ati/major libGL error: open uki failed (Operation not permitted) libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering name of display: :0 display: :0 screen: 0 direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose) server glx vendor string: ATI server glx version string: 1.4 Regards, Raman
