[X.org] fglrx from official ATI



Alright now I am trying to compile the official one.

I had to do:

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.10-4-386

to get the headers.
Then:
(following http://www.watchland.org/dmcgraw/ati-debian.html#kernel26)

$ cd /usr/src
$ ln -s linux-headers-2.6.10-4-386 linux
$ ln -s /usr/src/linux /lib/modules/`uname-r`/build
$ cd /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod

$ sudo sh ./make.sh /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod

Hopefully the warning is not important, right ?
Anyway everything seems to be working well except vtk ;-p

Ps: log file says:

(II) fglrx(0): driver needs XFree86 version: 4.3.x
(WW) fglrx(0): could not detect XFree86 version (query_status=-3)

This is weird since I specifically downloaded the X.org version...
