Sid, xorg and fglrx

[Tim Wood <tlwood@iinet.net.au>]

I'm another who has problems with the latest upgrade in sid's xorg.

My video is ATI Radeon X1600, which requires the proprietary fglrx 
driver. This has been running well on my HP NX8420 giving me the full 
1680*1050 resolution. The problem now as reported in Xorg.0.log:

(II) Module fglrx: vendor="FireGL - ATI Technologies Inc."
   compiled for 7.1.0, module version = 8.28.8
   Module class: X.Org Video Driver
   ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 1.0
[R200Setup] X version mismatch - detected X.org 1.3.0.0, required X.org 
7.1.0.0

I upgraded from a 2.6.18 kernel to 2.6.20 but module-assistant can't 
even compile the module. It compiles OK on 2.6.18, but trying to load it 
gives the error above. I was interested to note that Xorg.0.log reports 
the version as 1.3.0.0, matching the error above.

I'm thoroughly confused as I thought sid was up to xorg 7.2 but my 
installation gives:

The only thing that seems to work is the vesa driver at 1024*768.

I'd be grateful for any pointers on how to fix this. Should I file a bug?

TIA,
