By installing the livna packages (after uninstalling the ATI proprietary stuff) I have: /[nstickney@Elijah ~]$ fglrxinfo display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. OpenGL renderer string: RADEON 9800 XT Generic OpenGL version string: 2.0.5642 (8.22.5)/ However, according to Cedega, I am still not using direct rendering.
