Commanding something like sh ati-driver-installer-8.38.6-x86.x86_64.run --help lists all options. With sh ati-driver-installer-8.38.6-x86.x86_64.run --listpkg you'll get a list of supported packages. For "debian testing", e.g., something like sh ati-driver-installer-8.38.6-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Debian/testing should build the appropriate package. But it needs certain debian packages in order to work. -- Regards, Jörg-Volker. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
