fglrx upgrade to 8.40.4-2 with 2.6.22-2-686


Does anyone have any problems with Lenny with the 2.6.22-2-686 and the new(er) 8.40.4-2 fglrx package?

I've got 2.6.22-2-686 running just fine with 8.38.6-2 and I'm wondering if I should attempt the upgrade to get apt off my back, whining about upgrading.

It's on an HP laptop with a Mobility Radeon 9600.

Thanks, ahead of time...!

Answered my own question... closed my eyes and pushed the button - It actually updated alright.

I hate when a new fglrx, kernel or x gets installed - it's usually a week or so of gnashing of teeth to get it to work correctly.
