Pardon, please the OT, but, since that method works perfectly on my mission critical machines, but I am trying to build a test bed, will the deb packages work if one has upgraded to xorg 7?
If so, do the gl apps work?
I e, I need xorg 7, fglrx drivers, with all 3d working.
Best,
Martin

The fglrx-driver package should take care of this and should add a diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 to /usr/lib/fglrx/diversions/libGl.so.1.2. This works for me: http://grml.org/tmp/gkrellShoot_05-25-06_210104.png Are you using Xorg 7.0? Is you system up2date? What does 'dpkg --get-selections | grep xlib' say? The last method to solve the problem would be a 'dpkg -i --force-overwrite ~deb/fglrx-driver_8.25.18-1_i386.deb'. regards, -mika- _______________________________________________ Grml mailing list - Grml@mur.at http://lists.mur.at/mailman/listinfo/grml join #grml on irc.freenode.org grml-devel-blog: http://grml.supersized.org/
