[gentoo-dev] ATI Radeon Xpress 200 Drivers

[Chris Frederick <cdf123@cdf123.net>]

Hi all,

I just noticed that ati released drivers for my Radeon Xpress card.  I
installed the drivers for Xorg, and it works great.  But when I tried to
install the kernel modules, I got a lot of error messages with the
build.  I know gentoo has the regular ati-drivers package, but they
don't support the Xpress series of cards.  Can anyone give me a hand at
getting this to work?

Is there any development being done to include these into the
ati-drivers package?  or to make an ati-xpress-drivers package?

I'm no wiz with C, but I know enough to be comfortable with it.  I'll do
what I can to help get this working, but I could sure use a hand, or a
point in the right direction.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Here's ATI's info on the drivers:

ATI Proprietary Linux x86_64 Driver 8.13.4 for Radeon Xpress 200 Series

http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/64bit/fglrx64_6_8_0-8.13.4-1.x86_64.rpm

I ran rpm2targz on the rpm, and extracted it to /, then ran the
/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/make.sh script to build the kernel modules:
