[CentOS-docs] Additional Notes on: AtiDriver
Dear Ralph. I guess it was you who wrote the very helpful ATI driver tutorial page. I just wanted to add some additional notes: Package generation requires rpm-build to be installed. You may use: yum install rpm-build on a clean CentOS box to do so. Maybe you could also add a note for CentOS 5. On my 5.2 machine the newly generated packages are found in: /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/ instead of the current working directory (at least on my box, mabe somebody else could verify it). Also the newly generated fglrx package seems to require compat-libstdc++-33 on CentOS5. Concerning aticonfig: the command: aticonfig --initial will modify at least the most necessary configuration options in xorg.conf Kind Regards Marcus ___ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs
