All,
My issue is similar
to those experienced by William G. Lea but as there are some subtle differences,
I thought I would start a new thread.
My
setup:
Mandrake Linux
9.0
kernel:2
.4.19
XFree86 Version
4.2.1
Problems:
I attempted to
install the 4.2.X ATI drivers found at http://www.ati.com/support/drivers/linux/radeon-linux.html?cboOS=LinuxXFree86&cboProducts=RADEON+9000&eula=&choice=agree&cmdNext=Next
however, when
I login as root and try:
$>rpm -i <name of file for x server 4.2.x> : yields no ouptut, so do I assume everything is ok
$>rpm -q <name of file for x server 4.2.x> :tells me the package is not installed
$>rpm -qpl <name of file for x server4 .2.x> : yieldslds no output
Also I also can'
seem to find where "fglrxconfig" is meant to be installed
Solution:
Is it to upgrade to
XFree86 4.2.99.902? If so is there any an additional patch and also
do I need to add anything extra the to the config
file?
Regards
Daniel
