Howdy! First time posting to the list. First off I wanted to say that Fedora 3 is a very goo and stable OS. Secondly, I need my video card fully functional. I can install the rpm with errors. Here is what I get:

*** Trying to install a precompiled kernel module.
*** WARNING ***
Tailored kernel module for fglrx not present in your system.
You must go to /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod subdir
and execute './make.sh' to build a fully customed kernel module.
Afterwards go to /lib/modules/fglrx and run './make_install.sh'
in order to install the module into your kernel's module repository.
(see readme.txt for more details.)

As of now you can still run your XServer in 2D, but hardware acclerated
OpenGL will not work and 2D graphics will lack performance.

You can match this by getting Linux kernel 2.4.8 or higher.

If I try to do the ./make.sh, I get I permission denied. Even as root. Any ideas as to how I need to do this?? Am I even going for the right driver??? Thanks for the help!!
