I recommend you run the command below as root and all will be taken care of, I now use this script as it makes things very easy and sets up /etc/X11/xorg.conf file perfectly:
Code:
cd /usr/local/bin;wget -Nc smxi.org/sgfxi;chmod +x sgfxi;sgfxi
Web page here for information regarding this script.

Wow, how did you get this?
mmm is secure? sounds too good!
I have an Nvidia card in my laptop and kept getting kernel xen errors, so I googled the error and found this. It works flawlessly for me, a lot less headaches.

Well i just install the drivers, i get some errors but nothing fatal, X starts fine, but i get some erros in the terminal like
fglrx no matching device section for instance (BusID PCI:5:0:1) found!
No matching "device section" sounds like the device section of the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file does not coincide with the graphics card it found in the PCI:5:O:1 slot. Probably just an fglrx issue, I remember reading about ATI driver issues on that web page.
