The hardware settings are correct; Samsung SyncMaster 15GLi and ATI Radeon 9600 Pro. Chose to save the settings anyway and ran /usr/sbin/ati-fglrx-config-display enable Restarted X, but there's no difference. Here is the requested output: $ /sbin/lsmod | grep fglrx fglrx 225024 0 $ grep fglrx /etc/X11/xorg.conf Driver "fglrx" $ ldd /usr/X11R6/bin/glxgears libGL.so.1 => /usr/lib/ati-fglrx/libGL.so.1 (0x00242000) libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x00d84000) libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x00cbb000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (0x00de9000) libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x00c90000) libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x00b64000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00cb5000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00b4b000) Thanks again for your help. -- August
