It should work "out of the box" with the X.org radeon DRI drivers. What sort of problems are you having? Error messages?
Just no 3D acceleration. glxgears ~100fps. Tuxracer runs at, like, 10 frames per week.
What's in your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and what's the output from glxinfo?
So I found the instructions at http://www.fedorafaq.org/#radeon, thanks to Lisa's helpful links message from the 3rd. (Linked by Craig in the amusing "Curt tone?" thread.)
I followed the instructions to the letter. The patch went fine. When it came time to do the "sh make.sh" I ran into problems:
[root@bilbo build_mod]# patch -p1 -i /mnt/usb/fglrx-3.9.0-fc2.patch patching file 2.6.x/Makefile patching file firegl_public.c patching file firegl_public.h patching file make.sh
So far, so good.
[root@bilbo build_mod]# sh make.sh ATI module generator V 2.0 ========================== initializing... Error: XFree86 drm includes at /lib/modules/2.6.6-1.435.2.3/build/include/../drivers/char/drm do not fit this driver. This driver is designed to only work with X4.1.0 or higher. You can match this by getting Linux kernel 2.4.8 or higher. [root@bilbo build_mod]#
The system is not connected to the Internet, but I /am/ on all the latest updates, including xorg-x11-6.7.0-5.i386.rpm and friends, thanks to a USB hard drive and "rpm -Uvh --freshen." I did have problems with the "fam" and "fam-devel" packages but everything else is up to date. I'm pretty sure that fam isn't related to the problem. I have kernel-2.6.6-1.435.2.3.i686.rpm installed (and running, bye-bye uptime :-( ) and the associated kernel-sourcecode package, kernel-sourcecode-2.6.6-1.435.2.3.noarch.rpm, installed as well. I'm not sure if it is needed for building this driver.
To address Markku's questions, I forgot to get the Xorg log last night, but glxinfo says:

Which, I'm pretty sure means what we expect: software 3D.
