Re: I can't enable my video card's 3D acceleration(Radeon 7500)

Unresolved symbol errors are usually a pretty common problem here, but I don't 
remember having any problems with it myself... It usually means that you're 
missing some file or have a version of some software that is incompatible 
(very hard to tell usually) 

That's about as far as I know about DRI. Perhaps someone else who knows would 
like to help?

Thanks in advance!
