The story so far:
I have an ATI 8500LE. I tried to follow the instructions at http://www.fedorafaq.org/#radeon. I kept getting errors about "structure has no member named `count'." I found some other patch for that (http://kerneltrap.org/node/view/3298).
I also had to use a link from the drm directory under /lib/modules/whatever/drm to /usr/src/linux/whatever/drm. I'm pretty hazy about that.
Anyway, the thing finally complies, but when I run make_install.sh I get:
[root@bilbo fglrx]# sh make_install.sh - creating symlink - recreating module dependency list - trying a sample load of the kernel module make_install.sh: line 341: 1949 Segmentation fault modprobe $module failed. [root@bilbo fglrx]#
I've removed the kernel and fglrx rpms, deleted the fglrx files, reinstalled the rpms, re-patched and re-compiled, and I still get the same thing. (I've got to tell you that "rpm -e -nodeps kernel" seems like too big of a temptation to the gods of computing to cause a power failure!)
Anyone have any thoughts?
I feel like I'm really close, and I really want to play Vega Strike :-)
