Question Problems installing ati driver 8.443.1 on Fedora 7.

I'm trying to install the driver so fglrx and all that good stuff works (hoping for games and beryl) but everytime i try doing it this way:

http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-t...-7-59919.shtml

And yes i changed the driver version so it is same as the file and gives me an error at creating a specific fedora package
Code:
[root@localhost ~]# '/home/irek/Desktop/ati-driver-installer-8.443.1-x86.x86_64.run' --buildpkg Fedora/F7 
Created directory fglrx-install.EN6234
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

didn't help

I tried again this is the process:
Install Livna REP

Code:
su -
yum install kmod-fglrx
aticonfig --initial
the aticonfig --initial didn't work so i typed again it says "nothing to do terminating.....

i restarted

Code:
glxgears
looks nice for few seconds then its choppy again

Code:
glxinfo | grep direct
comes out Negative....

What am i doing wrong here?

It appears that at first you were trying to build your own ATI rpm, then you went and installed the one from Livna. Please post your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file as well as the output of fglrxinfo and lsmod.

Thanks.
