Hi to all.
I'm trying to install the Ati 3.7.6 drivers on my Suse Linux 9.1, following the readme file located on the Suse ftp:
Quote:

HOWTO
-----
1) Update XFree86 drivers
# rpm -Uhv fglrx*.rpm
2) Update kernel module
* prepare kernel module build
- install the following packages with YaST:
+ kernel-source
+ make
+ gcc
- use YaST Online Update (YOU) and - if available - select the
kernel patch to make sure that the kernel sources match the
current running kernel
- configure the kernel sources
# cd /usr/src/linux
# rm .config
# make cloneconfig
# make prepare-all (only for kernel-source >= 2.6.5-7.75)
* install kernel module source
# rpm -Uhv km_fglrx*.rpm
* compile kernel module sources
# cd /usr/src/kernel-modules/fglrx
# KERNEL_SOURCE=/usr/src/linux make modules
# KERNEL_SOURCE=/usr/src/linux make install
# depmod -a
3) Configure X11
# sax2 -r -m 0=fglrx -b /usr/X11R6/lib/sax/profile/firegl
4) Enable 3D support
* edit /etc/X11/XF86Config with your favorite editor
- add
Load "dri"
to Section "Module"
Edit:
Furthermore, you might want to install the "km_dri" module via YaST.
5) Known Issues
- driver only supports 24bit color depth
- enabling of 3D support through SaX2 does not work
- driver cannot be used on AMD64 architecture

I have this errors, on the step "KERNEL_SOURCE=/usr/src/linux make modules":

After this error, i continue the next steps.
At the end i reboot the system, and try to run a 3d application (some space ship game) and the image was not perfect at all, with some "artefacts".
What is the problem?
Can anyone help me please? Thanks.
