I've gone through all of the work setting up DRI (use flags and Xorg "dri" module loading), and Xorg.0.log shows that DRI is enabled, but glxinfo as a user doesn't work; why is this so?

Did you add the proper permissions in xorg.conf:
| Code: | Section "dri"
Mode 0666
EndSection |

The user is in the video group and the permissions in xorg.conf at the end have been uncommented.
It may be worth mentioning that it is X11R7, but with the dri and fglrx flags set for xorg-x11 |
