Hi Jo !
I actually did the clean-up job already. Everything is in the right place, as
it is needed on xorg7. Yes, I made the packages out of the ati.com installer.
And I built also the modules from flavio on myself (loaded down the *.gz,
*.fsc and *.diff) from his repository.
No success at all.
I know, there is fglrx indebian, but only for 32-bit, not for 64-bit.
I had a similar problem with the bcm4300-module and the ipw2100-kernel-module,
where the 64-bit-compiled modules did not play together with the
32-bit-binary firmware.
On 32-bit-systems everything went fine !
Best regards
Hans
