Radeon HD 7800 on Debian sid

[rizpho]

Hi Kano,

and thanks for your answer.
in effect, I used the installer from AMD.
Later I'll try the Debian way, erasing the driver created by installer.

There is a problem with

test `uname -m`! = x86_64! && apt-get --yes install fglrx-glx-ia32

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 fglrx-glx-ia32 : Depends: ia32-libs (>= 20120102) but it is not going to be installed
                  Depends: libfglrx-ia32 (= 1:12-6-2) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

..and the module can't be install

Oh thanks RussianNeuroMancer
Does this version of driver work without libpciaccess workaround?

[RussianNeuroMancer]

Yes, as you see:

X11 crashes on amd64 are fixed.
