ati 8.11 on ubuntu intrepid

[biasquez]

hi, i would like to report 2 errors installing latest ati driver (8.11) on ubuntu intrepid

- installing driver with --buildpkg Ubuntu/intrepid, i have this error:

(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions//libdri.so
(II) Module dri: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
compiled for 7.1.0, module version = 1.0.0
ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.3
(EE) module ABI major version (0) doesn't match the server's version (1)
(II) UnloadModule: "dri"

- installing driver with gui mode (default mode), i have this error:

fglrx: module license 'Proprietary. (C) 2002 - ATI Technologies, Starnberg, GERMANY' taints kernel.
[fglrx] Maximum main memory to use for locked dma buffers: 678 MBytes.
[fglrx:drm_alloc] *ERROR* [driver] Allocating 0 bytes

The build scripts are wrong. You can not use em until you fix em. Thats what i do in my script:

it's wrong build scripts using first install mode but second error doesn't depend on build script, i think but maybe r300 support dropped.

There are 2 error in the build script - results in not working fglrx kernel module and wrongly installed libs for xserver 1.5.

a) Makefile not updated, you have to replace that by a newer one in

packages/Ubuntu/dists/intrepid/replacements/Makefile

b) No XARCH := x740 for intrepid - error in

packages/Ubuntu/dists/intrepid/rules

Both errors are fixed in the patch included in my script.

can you explain how to fix these errors with your script?
one question: can i use phorogit Catalyst Packaging Script to fix these errors?
