2.6.12-rc1

Anyone played with compiling fglrx 8.10.19 against kernel
2.6.12-rc1?

I've generated patches for the compile errors, but at module load
time it fails with:

fglrx: module license 'Proprietary. (C) 2002 - ATI Technologies, Starnberg, GERMANY' taints kernel.
fglrx: Unknown symbol inter_module_get

since the symbol was already deprecated and has been removed from
kernel 2.6.12.  I tried a simple-minded patch to replace
inter_module_get with symbol_get and inter_module_put with
symbol_put in firegl_public.c, but it failed with:

fglrx: module license 'Proprietary. (C) 2002 - ATI Technologies, Starnberg, GERMANY' taints kernel.
fglrx: Unknown symbol __symbol_get


So far I haven't located a proper functional patch anywhere
(although there is one on rage3d that breaks DRM apparently), and
I'm kinda tired of patching fglrx this evening :)

Thanks,
Dan
