As far as I can see there is no chance neither to get my Radeon to
cooperate with open source driver nor to turn on AIGLX with my fglrx, at
least at the moment of writing. It's a pity, but allow me then to return
to the secondary topic of this thread.

A chooser in the GDM/XDMCP sense is a program that lists available
hosts to log into (via XDMCP).
Thanks. It may be useful some day.
Why should you need to write anything. Forget GDM and if you want to
run X then type X [ENTER]. If you want Xgl then Xgl [ENTER].
