		+	* To see a list of all distributions you can generate packages for, do
		+	# sh ati-driver-installer-<your_version>.run --list
		+	* To create a set of FC6 RPM's with the (current) ATI factory installer, usually you would do the following:
		+	# sh ati-driver-installer-8.34.8-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Fedora/FC6
		+
		+	Normally this would work, but the current version of the ATI Factory installer (8.34.8) is broken and will not complete generation of FC6 rpm's. In fact the ATI Factory installer has been broken since at least 8.29. When RPM generation is invoked, it produces the following error:
		+
		+	"install: cannot stat `fireglcontrolpanel': No such file or directory"
		+
		+	and exits. The problem seems to be related to the qt-devel or the version of qt installed. There is a hack to work around this problem; it involves editing the scripts packaged with the installer. The hack is on Phoronix Forums.<ref>http://www.phoronix.net/forums/showthread.php?t=318</ref>
		+
		+	It's all about deleting fireglcontrolpanel completely out of the rpm generation entirely. Basically you won't have fireglcontrolpanel installed after you generate and install the rpm's, but everything else should work.
