thanks, seems like changing kernel config helped, still no cigar
though, xorg log says:
(II) fglrx(0): DRI initialization successfull!
and lsmod confirms that fglrx is loaded
but then fglrxinfo says:
display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.4.1)
despite the fact the ldd confirms that /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 is used
which is a diversion by fglrx-driver to:
/usr/lib/fglrx/diversions/libGL.so.1
and the openGL programs are slow so I'm pretty sure software
rendering is used.
any ideas where to go from here? Would you (or somebody else) mind
posting relevant parts of xorg.conf (and perhaps kernel but I guess I
have that part working since the kernel module is loaded)
TIA

Is it possible to make ATI proprietary driver fglrx work with the

I installed fglrx packages (build the kernel module etc.) but it
doesn't seem to accept xorg 7:
(II) fglrx(0): UMM Bus area: 0xd0acb000 (size=0x07535000)

does it mean it's not going to work until ATI releases a new driver
with support for xorg 7? Anybody had any success with the free driver
(it has at least some 3D experimental features).
relevant packages:
ii fglrx-control 8.24.8-1
ii fglrx-driver 8.24.8-1
ii fglrx-driver-dev 8.24.8-1
ii fglrx-kernel-2.6.15jojda 8.24.8-1+jojda.0
ii fglrx-kernel-src 8.24.8-1
ii xserver-xorg 7.0.22
TIA,

Hi Eric
I also had a lot of trouble to get this going on debian ... it seems
the fglrx driver doesn't like it when the kernel was compiled with
including CONFIG_DRM=y and CONFIG_DRM_RADEON=y ... When you compiled
this kernel-module you also have to modprobe this into the kernel "modprobe
fglrx" ... when DRM was already compiled into the kernel this modprobe
will fail.
