I have solved the problem: in the upgrade from gutsy to hardy, for some
reason the package linux-restricted-modules was NOT installed.
So:
sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
sudo modprobe -r fglrx
sudo modprobe fglrx
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm/start
Finally, glxinfo reports: Direct rendering: Yes
Just to be sure, my xorg.conf uses the fglrx driver and has also these
sections:
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "true"
EndSection
Hope that helps.
