DRI initialization failure, fglrx.ko missing/incompatible

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:

Code:

[mouser@orpheus ~]$ glxinfo
name of display: :0
X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  154 (ATIFGLEXTENSION)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  66 ()
  Serial number of failed request:  13
  Current serial number in output stream:  13

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:

Code:

[    53.532] (EE) fglrx(0): atiddxDriScreenInit failed. Probably kernel module missing or incompatible.
[    53.533] (WW) fglrx(0): ***********************************************************
[    53.533] (WW) fglrx(0): * DRI initialization failed                              *
[    53.533] (WW) fglrx(0): * kernel module (fglrx.ko) may be missing or incompatible *
[    53.533] (WW) fglrx(0): * 2D and 3D acceleration disabled                        *
[    53.533] (WW) fglrx(0): ***********************************************************

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.
