           Summary: ati-fglrx: (EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of fglrx_dri.so
                    failed<--possible solution
           Product: Codex
           Version: z-rejected grimoire
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: z-rejected grimoire
        AssignedTo: sm-grimoire-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
        ReportedBy: harry.broeken AT xs4all.nl


Been busy some time now to get ati-fglrx working. 
First I've changed the VERSION in DETAILS to  9.9; and it worked more or less;
but (some) OPENGL didn't work.
Found 
(EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of fglrx_dri.so failed
(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering
in Xorg.log
Googling gave that ati didn't support AIGLX; but all OPENGL looked like not
working. Futhermore I didn't like the failing of dlopen of an installed
component from ati-fglrx.
Somebody at the gentoo-bug-reports seemed to have a solution; something about
an environment-variable that could be set; so that the OPENGL components
(libs-drivers) can be found. 
I tried some things and found a solution; however not that elegant.
I made a symbolic link from /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri/fglrx_dri.so to
/usr/lib/dri/fglrx_dri.so
Now the Xorg.log says
(II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized /usr/lib/dri/fglrx_dri.so
(II) GLX: Initialized DRI GL provider for screen 0
and I've tried fgl_glxgears which now works.
fglrxinfo now gives
display: :0.0  screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: ATI Radeon HD 3450
OpenGL version string: 2.1.8918

It now works for me, perhaps this is some use for some guru
