[ILUG] DRM on Radeon Mobility

[Keith Davey]

I went there and looked around the links and documents. I found a hint
to set the gl debug environment variable to verbose and run glxinfo
again.

When I do that, I get this in the out put:

libGL error: dlopen /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/radeon_dri.so failed
(/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/radeon_dri.so: undefined symbol:
_mesa_init_program)
libGL error: unable to find driver: radeon_dri.so


So this looks like my problem. The file is there but has an undefined
symbol, so it must not be built correctly. I'm yo try to figure out what
builds that file and try to build it again.

If anyone knows what the problem is off the top of their head please
shout.

Keith
