Revision as of 05:47, 23 August 2008
General Status
- Uses kernel 2.6.25
- Uses Xorg 7.1
- Use of the ATI driver requires patching and a downgrade of the X server
Installation Option #1 Downgrade X and use the Livna repository
See the Fedora 9 FGLRX HOWTO
Installation Option #2 Local RPM Build
Releases through Catalyst 8.8 do not work on Fedora 9 without extensive patching/downgrading. See the Catalyst 8.4 - 8.8 failures
Issues
Current driver releases do not build on Fedora 9 without patching, and the resulting RPM packages crash the X server. Downgrading X and installing a older ATI driver release is an option.
