Re: fglrx 8.29.6 and Xorg 7.1.1 :: ABI major version mismatch

Of course none of those issues really sound like they should give an abi
error.  Any change you are running with the old kernel module loaded and
trying to use the new driver?  Which version of the kernel module do you
have loaded?

I did not try older versions of fglrx with Xorg 7.1. Update to Xorg
7.1 in debian/unstable coincided with the release 8.29.6 of fglrx
driver from ATI. So I tried them together but with no luck.
The kernel module was freshly compiled one from the fglrx 8.29.6 distribution.

A quick google search brought up this:
http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-x@lists.debian.org/msg49143.html
so perhaps all you need is a newer version of the package in question.

But that bugreport is about the opensource driver "ati" not about the
proprietary driver "fglrx".
