  • ATI FC6 + Kernel 2.6.20

    Hey all,
    since I've upgraded my kernel to 2.6.20(be it 2.6.20-1.2925.fc6-i686 or 2.6.20-1.2933.fc6-i686) the ATI drivers are not compiling properly anymore :-(
    Even the new driver release didn't fix my problems.
    Here is a link to the install log


    Can sum1 help me out with that?

    Thanks

    Do you have kernel-headers and kernel-devel installed? More difficult reading a foreign log.

        What errors do you get?

          I'm not at the machine right now (at work), but it said something to the effect of it conflicted with the old driver that was already there.

                  After building the drivers and then generating the RPMs, just use:

                  rpm -ivh --force *.rpm

                  For those drivers. Should work.
