Hi !
I am trying to make FireMV 2400 PCIe to work on fedora 10. It is
supposed to work with 4 monitors. I see on AMD web site that 8.583
driver has listed this card as supported. However, this driver version
does not appear in rpmfusion repository, or I could not match it with
the versions available.
I downloaded the file from AMD. If I run command
./ati-driver-installer-8.583-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Fedora/F10
it starts OK - extracting, check MD sums and then says building package.
CPU load goes to around 100% with bash process eating all of it and it
sits like this forever. Looks like there is a bug in the build process.
I can extract the file in the new directory, but not sure what to do
with it. This might be the wrong place to ask for help on that, but I
just thought that building rpms for rpmfusion required solving similar
issues.
Thanks,
Leon
I'm not sure how well this will work (8.583 is a few months old if I
recall correctly) but you could try installing the 9.3 source RPM and
chaging the "Source0:" line in xorg-x11-drv-fglrx.spec to
ati-driver-installer-8.583-x86.x86_64.run and then rebuilding the driver.

Stewart,
Thanks for help! I was able to follow you advice and built
xorg-x11-drv-fglrx{,-debuginfo,-devel,-libs} packages.
I disabled rpmfusion repositories to avoid upgrade and now I want to
install 2 of those - xorg-x11-drv-fglrx and -libs.
However, dependencies call for corresponding fglrx-kmod which would be
provided by akmod-fglrx. How can I get that one to build for 8.583?
Thanks for help,
Leon
