The problem is that I can't succesfully recompile the fglrx driver, so the system uses MESA instead of the graphic libraries provided by the official ATI package. Is it possible to use the Ati FireGL drivers with 2.6?Check for instructions (and a patch) on www.rage3d.com, in the Linux forum. I got 3.2.8 to compile with those instructions. Initially, I had errors when starting kdm (and many other apps) that caused X to exit; the logs showed entries like "Can't register SecondaryColorxxxEXT." Fixed by removing /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so, which was not provided by the ATI drivers; libGL.so.1 was.Also, you must be actively running the desired kernel to compile the module using ATI's script. Run the installation from a text-mode window with the modules radeon and radeonfb not loaded.-- Rob
The ATI 3.7.0 driver works out of the box. The open source DRI drivers also work great. -Roberto
