Ok, I've redone a fresh install of Xubuntu Hardy 8.04.1.
Then I ran
- apt-get update
- apt-get upgrade (it downloaded a update of restricted-modules)
- apt-get install mesa-utils
Reboot (just for purity)
Then:
- Applications > System > Hardware Drivers, I enabled ATI accelerated graphics
driver (it downloaded something).
- then reboot
I'm now running the ATI drivers:
:~$ dpkg --list | grep restricted
ii linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-19-generic 2.6.24.13-19.45
Non-free Linux 2.6.24 modules on x86/x86_64
ii linux-restricted-modules-common 2.6.24.13-19.45
Non-free Linux 2.6.24 modules helper script
ii linux-restricted-modules-generic 2.6.24.19.21
Restricted Linux modules for generic kernels
My xorg.conf contains:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "fglrx"
EndSection
~$ lspci | grep VGA
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 [Radeon X1200
Series]
After all, I still get "SGI" as client glx vendor string.
If you have any more questions, let me know.
