That is what I originally did.

I used 'dpkg -L fglrx-glc22' to find all the files installed by the package and mancually checked them to be sure that they were the original versions installed by XFree86. I also checked all the symlinks to make sure that they pointed to the libs provided by XFree86. > Also I get my opensource radeon DRI drivers from a Debian > maintainer's unofficial "site": > > http://people.debian.org/~daenzer/dri-trunk/ > http://people.debian.org/~daenzer/dri-trunk-sid/ > > The first URL is for xfree86 4.2, the other for xfree86 4.3.

Until then, I would like to at least get the open source drivers working, so that I can compare. -Roberto ___________________________________________________ Yahoo!
