Could you get me a grep of "DRI" from that XFree86 log. I

t'll help with further diagnostics.=20

(If you need help with Grep. Look up grep in the man pages.  Little hint,=
 in=20
newer versions of KDE's Konqueror you can access the man pages with the m=
an:/=20
protocol e.g. <man:/grep/>)

Acording to it AGP is loaded fine, so that's not the problem.

Two most likely possiblities:

First: The user running the GLX program does not have authority to access=
=20
DRI/DRM/GLX.  To fix this change the mode and user settings in the "DRI"=20
section of your XF86Config.  In this you will see DRI as loaded correctly=
 in=20
the grep of "DRI"

Second:  Your install utility did not enable the DRI module.  In this cas=
e,=20
virtually nothing will show up when you grep "DRI"   In this case add the=
=20
following lines to the module section:

Module "dri"
Module "glx"
