Right. In fact ,it is i386 with 64-bit kernel.
What it sounds like to me is that you're using a 64-bit kernel on
i386,
which is supported by Debian (and in general, a good idea). However,
in this case, the programs provided with the ATI drivers expect a
64-bit
userspace with a 64-bit kernel, and you cannot mix 32-bit and 64-bit
binaries in the same program. And most libraries for i386 are not
available in 64-bit versions.
I see. I understand now why I was facing these problems. I feel a bit
shameful not having thinking about this before.
Your choices here are:
* use a 64-bit userland (amd64), 64-bit kernel, and the fglrx
drivers;
* use a 32-bit userland (i386), 32-bit kernel, and the fglrx drivers;
* wait for multi-arch to be implemented; or
* use the free drivers.
Thanks. I'm going to try an amd 64 installation.
Note that in the NVIDIA world there *is* a way to do this, so you
might want to Google for something like:
Linux fglrx 64-bit kernel 32-bit userland
