I'm having some problems using the new 2.6.10 kernel and the ATI module from:

ATI drivers

This module always worked perfectly on other kernels I used so I'm not sure if it is a module problem or a kernel one. Dmesg give me te following error:

fglrx: module license 'Proprietary. (C) 2002 - ATI Technologies, Starnberg, GERMANY' taints kernel.
fglrx: Unknown symbol pci_find_class

I've googled a bit but since this kernel is quite new I could only find some reference to this problem and mostly in French which I can't read.
Is this a known problem?

ATI and linux don't match, that's the problem.

yea i made the mistake of getting an ATI card. while great for windows they are terrible for linux. I went thru hell to install it in suse, its been the main reason i havn't updated my kernel yet. Also the preformance is still bad, i had better with my geforce2 card.

Agree, I'll never buy an ATI again for this reason. Hope the module get updated soon......

First download the ATI 3.14.6 drivers if you haven't allready do it. Than install the driver. Now change your current directory with:
cd /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod

To Patch the driver you need to type in:
wget http://www.pissflitsche.net/scripts/agpgart_be.patch

and than patch them with:
patch -p0 < agpgart_be.patch

At last you must do the rest of the standart installation procedure:
sh ./make.sh
cd ..
sh ./make_install.sh

Thanx, this works. I did it a bit different without the patch though. I followed the instructions on:

ATI drivers Debian

Before doing the 'make-kpkg --append-to-version "-flavour" --added-modules fglrx-xxx-3.14.6 modules_image' to build the Debian package I edited the file agpart_be.c and replaced all the pci_find_class with pci_get_class (6 times) then I continued with the compile of the package and all went fine. Playing ET on linux with 2.6.10 again! Seems that 2.6.10 has changed in some ways.
