I just noticed that when I run glxgears stuff on this computer (which is an

libGL error: open DRM failed (Operation not permitted)
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering

When I run glxgears as root, it works as expected (without this error).

My /etc/X11/xorg.conf contains this:

Section "DRI"
        Group        0
        Mode         0666
EndSection

It is my current understanding that this should allow all users to access DRI,
but apparently it doesn't.

What do I need to change to fix this?


Hi Frank, the /etc/X11/xorg.conf is a file that says nothing about DRI perhaps because I have FC6. But the file itself has this:

[root@localhost X11]# ls -al xorg.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 568 Jun 18 17:31 xorg.conf
[root@localhost X11]#

So whatever reads xorg.conf has to have root.
