I'm not going to submit this as a bug, because I am not certain that you will see it as one, or which package the bug would be for. However, it's a fairly frustrating situation.<br><br>For some reason, I have not (yet) succeeded in building the kernel module for fglrx. Without that, and with the diversions that other fglrx-* packages apply (libGL and libdri?), X is unusable. I get a black screen; the monitor does not go into powersaving mode. Ctrl-Alt- combinations ( -Del, -Backspace, -F1, -F2, ...) do not work. I am forced to press the reset button, and the Xorg log contains nothing incriminating.<br>
<br>I compiled kernel 2.6.29 myself. I suspect that fglrx-source's failure to build either has to do with the kernel version or where/how I built the kernel - I do not believe it is a bug in the package.<br><br>However, it would be nice if the diversions did not happen unless the fglrx module existed under /lib/modules/`uname -r`. Perhaps the packages could be left unconfigured if the module doesn't exist, and the diversions would be set up when the packages successfully configure?<br>
