error whie installing ATI mobility radeon 9700 on debian testing



hi all,

i am a linux newbei and trying to install my ATI video card(ATI mobility radeon 9700).

i am running debian testing on my fujitsu siemens laptop my kernel version is 2.6.8-1-386.

i followed the steps on the xoomer site without any problems till i reached the step where i have to install the driver and the kernel.

when i typed the command dpkg -i fglrx-driver_8.10.19-2_i386.deb i got the following error

(Reading database ... 93120 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking fglrx-driver (from fglrx-driver_8.10.19-2_i386.deb) ...

Errors were encountered while processing:
fglrx-driver_8.10.19-2_i386.deb

any ideas how to fix that??

thanks in advance
