Well, it works now. Some X extension was to blame (extmod perhaps?!).
I updated the ebuild that's floating around with some fixes for amd64:

Yeah I've got exactly the same problem :/ And Xorg -configure crashes so I can't do that, and with fglrxconfig I assume I'm supposed to rename the file to xorg.conf, which doesn't work either, I can't even get into X.

Mythos,

Your file sizes are the same as mine (which were obviously wrong in the post below :) )

Try doing a

Code: Select all

 > strace -etrace=open /opt/ati/bin/fglrxinfo
And see exactly which libGL.so.1 it reads (look for the line that doesn't have a ' = -1').

Maybe you just need to rebuild your ld.so cache after exchanging the file ?

Code: Select all

 > ldconfig

I had to add this to my xorg.conf, because I wasn't able to access /dev/dri/card0 which yielded the errornous glxinfo output (thanks to strace)

Code: Select all

Section "DRI"
        Mode    0666
EndSection
I modified the ebuild to take care of fglrx_dri.so, which caused problems too.

@LaserGuidedBunnyRabbit

Code: Select all

Section "Module"
    Load        "dbe"   # Double buffer extension
    Load        "extmod"
    SubSection  "extmod"
#      Option    "omit xfree86-dga"
    EndSubSection
    Load        "type1"
    Load        "freetype"

    Load        "glx"   # libglx.a
    Load        "dri"   # libdri.a
EndSection
Does your modules section look like this? Try reverting to this if not, this works for me...

@Mythos:
Look at your xorg.conf, it should contain something like this:

Code: Select all

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "ATi Radeon 9800 XT"
        Driver  "fglrx"
I think you got 'Driver "radeon"' somewhere, this is the _wrong_ (the xorg builtin) one! You want ATI's fglrx module... Be sure to load the kernel module prior to launching X with

Code: Select all

modprobe fglrx

Still no luck with glx on 8.8.25 under XOrg 6.8.

If I enable glx and try to startx, then all I get is a black screen and a frozen machine :(

Tried your corrected ebuild but x still errors out and says it can not find fglrx. I modprobed fglrx and that went fine but still no x.

Actually I don't think that ebuild works.

Check the file

/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.o

it is most likely a recursive symlink (links to itself).

I have this problem also. Where should I point to?

The problem is that the fglrx_drv.o driver isn't actually being installed at all by that ebuild. You could use rpm2targz on the rpm from ATI and simply drop the fglrx_drv.o file on top of the bad link or .. the ebuild can be fixed. I haven't taken the time to look at the ebuild in depth yet.
