Once the fix applied I do not have to do it all the time ; in my case the bug was introduced when applying Envy to install free drivers for ATI Radeon cards.

[Bug 67325] Re: fglrx bug
Dave, thanks it fixed the bug as now fglrx driver is loaded correctly ; I do not know yet whether I have to do : sudo /usr/bin/restricted-manager at each slogging ession. If necessary the best way is to add this command line in the file : /etc/bash.bashrc file for example to obtain all users to get benefit of the fix.

[Bug 67325] Re: fglrx bug
I had this problem with Kubuntu which took me some time to figure out. It turned out to be something really dumb. Xlib: extension XFree86-DRI missing on display :0.0. You see.. Ubuntu and Kubuntu use a Restricted-Driver manager to load/unload non-FOSS drivers. Even if they are installed and specified in the xorg.conf does not mean they'll load properly. If you use GNome as your Windows Manager then you can load the Restricted Driver's Manager from the System or Preference's menu (I can't remember which). Ironically.. If you use Kubuntu then this particular menu item is missing. In order to load the Restricted Driver Manager in Kubuntu then.. sudo /usr/bin/restricted-manager If you check the box and reboot then it should change this message: Xlib: extension XFree86-DRI missing on display :0.0. To this one: OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. OpenGL renderer string: RADEON X600 PRO OpenGL version string: 2.0.6334 (8.34.8) If you are running glxgears and getting 400-600 frames per second using either Ubuntu or Kubuntu or your video playback seems a bit slow then this may also solve your problem. This also corrected my problem getting mplayer to play multiple videos in multiple windows on multiple monitors simultaneously without a loss in quality.

I have to back up on my last statement ; the slight freezing bug is back though I have seen a session without ! Regards. -- fglrx bug https://launchpad.net/bugs/67325 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 67325] Re: fglrx bug
As a matter of fact adding the lines : Section Extensions Option Composite disable EndSection was not enough to get my hardware rendering on my Radeon X300 video card to work neatly as on Dapper ; I still experienced some slight freezing effects with for example screensaver applications. The last update of fglrx installed seems to definetely fix the problem.

[Bug 67325] Re: fglrx bug
yes, the fix is brought with the addition of these 3 lines to the xorg.conf file : Section Extensions Option Composite disable EndSection Regards -- fglrx bug https://launchpad.net/bugs/67325 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi, i had the same problem as the original poster, and turning composite off (as suggested by Adam Conrad) did solve it. cheers -- fglrx bug https://launchpad.net/bugs/67325 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
