SUSE/openSUSE

General Status

 * Native Installer Support contributed by Stefan Dirsch
 * Repackaged by Flavio Stanchina

Installation
Method 1
 * Install 'kernel-source' and C++ compiler ('gcc') and tools selection in yast.
 * Get the rpm that matches the SuSE X server on your system (XFree86 4.3 or X.Org 6.8) instead of the ATI driver installer from
 * init 3
 * install the driver package (e.g. rpm -Uvh fglrx64_6_8_0-8.24.8-1.x86_64.rpm)
 * configure your X server using fglrxconfig

note: this is not the way described in the READMEs, but it's the way that worked best for me and others. Especially if sax and/or your X server crash when using the ATI driver installer's package (due to missing symbols in fglrx_drv.o)
