dkms status had said: # dkms status fglrx, 9-11, 2.6.31-2-amd64, x86_64: installed i looked through /var/log/messages and saw something that said 'dkms_autobuild: missing linux-headers-2.6.32', so i installed the headers. now the module is built during boot and loaded: # dkms status fglrx, 9-11, 2.6.32-trunk-amd64, x86_64: installed so, it looks like the solution is to make sure that the correct headers are installed alongside new kernel updates when using dkms. mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
