[Dri-users] Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".

[Thomas D. <tde...@lb...>]

Dear DRI-users

I just purchased a new computer on with a brand new ATI-FireGL-X1 
graphic card.
I installed linux redhat 9 and have some problems witht the 3D 
accelerated graphics.
Each time I invoke openGL commands, like glxinfo, I have the message:

 > Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".

The version of XFree86 installed in my machine is XFree86-4.3.0-2, and 
the following lines are included in my XF86Config
 Section "DRI"
         Group        0
         Mode         0666
 EndSection
So apparently the driver is not working for this card.

I went to ati website, and I found out that ATi was proposing several 
drivers. Unfortunately, it seems that there is no solution given for my 
platform which is based on libc 6.3 (glibc 2.3), since I cannot start 
the X server when the corresponding file named 
fglrx-glc22-4.3.0-2.9.13.i586.rpm (notice the glc22) is installed.

Apparently this card is not yet supported by DRI.
Does anyone know what I should do?
