Fixing problems with ATI drivers in MDK 10.1

I had a problem with running the ATI drivers(fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1) as user. Running fgl_glxgears was not working. It would work as root. Since this is a permission problem, I checked /etc/X11/xorg.conf and it had dri set to mode 666. I checked /etc/security/console.perms and one of the last lines need to be changed to:

 

<console> 0666 <dri> 0666 root.video

 

Reboot the system and it should work just fine. I got nearly identical speeds with running fgl_glxgears as root and user.
