Not sure about this particular one, but on some models ACPI is totally broken with anything before 2.6.21-rc5. And by "totally" I mean "may fry your hardware".

It can use 1.3.0 just fine, it just refuses to do so because of a dumb version check performed by the driver. Fortunately, there is a fix. Just run one of the attached scripts (NOT BOTH) as root after installing the driver, and it should work. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. > Furthermore, xv is broken with 8.36.5. Just use software scaling or OpenGL output. Whatever works with your media player. Did I mention that fglrx drivers suck? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGPwJ/ztOe9mov/y4RAtm+AJ0VOQU0pkAk+RgBQJ85ScWZiNoH+wCgpeec 6wQdyQGt8faOZSbt70fWQOc= =Ps6L -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
