LinuxQuestions.org - [SOLVED] Having trouble installing ATI Proprietary Linux Driver

Hi, everybody. I'm having a teensy problem with installing something. About time, too, everything was going so smoothly.

Anyway, I'm trying to install the ATI Proprietary Linux Drivers so this new video card (well, I say "new" though it's actually a rather old card, a Radeon x300, but still better than my embedded gpu) that I have will be stable whenever I play some games, and I get one particular problem I'm having trouble getting around..

Code:

bash-4.1# ./ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run 

Created directory fglrx-install.mXfQ2B

Verifying archive integrity... All good.

See? I really don't know how to fix this. Completely clueless, in fact, except for maybe reinstalling XFree86 or changing the PATH env variable to something else, but I don't know what to change it to. Hm...

Anyway, any way somebody could help me?
