Fedora 11 (64-bit) fglrx

Hello! I just upgraded to the 64-bit version of Fedora 11 from Fedora 10. I was wondering how one gets fglrx to run correctly under Fedora 11, as it's important for my work. I've had problems with this in the past... I know rpmfusion hasn't released a kmod-fglrx yet, so the guide I used for Fedora 10 doesn't apply. Does anyone have any help or information?

Try

It may not work, however, since there has been problems with fglrx and Fedora 11.

If it does not boot into X after installation, do the following:

Quote:

When you go to the grub menu, press 'a' on your os

Replace 'rhgb quiet' with '3'
You will boot into init 3

login as root

Do "cd /usr/share/ati"

Then do "sh ./fglrx-uninstall"

Reboot!

Hope it works for you. ATI does not support linux very well.

If it does not work, you may either have to wait for an update or keep using Fedora 10. It's stupid and sad, I know. :(

Cheers! :)

Thanks! However, I can't try it (yet) because I'm having some difficulties with upgrading to fedora 11 without not having yum install like it should.
