I recently upgraded my Fedora to FC 19, and I'm using akmod-catalyst for my video driver. A little more than a week later, after several updates, I noticed my desktop effects weren't working. When I tried to run a game under Wine, it crashed. After some digging, I found that both issues were related to openGL.
When I run glxinfo, I get the following message:
I'm running FC19 with akmod-catalyst video drivers. I tried replacing the drivers with kmod-catalyst and with the Catalyst drivers available from the AMD site, all with the same result.
I've attached my Xorg.0.log to this post. About 3/4 of the way down, it says:
So it looks like there's a problem with the fglrx kernel module. But how to fix it? Trying kmod-catalyst hasn't worked, and the driver from the AMD web site fails to install.
When I run glxinfo, I get the following message:
Code:
[mouser@orpheus ~]$ glxinfo
