[Newbie]ATI Radeon 7500, Xfree86-4.2.0 and FreeBSD-4.5 = DRIScreenInit failed

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



1. don't write html mail to a linux mailing list.
2. post that config file here. even better: together with the last outputs of your system when firing up X.

for now I'd say, you didn't grant regular users permission to access DRI hardware, there should be a section like this
somewhere:

Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection

check for that.
