As far as I know, from the 2.6 kernels on, fglrx has been working fine, I use fglrx for about a year now and all the kerneles I update have no problem. so if you download the latest that is just fine, you only have to configure it correctly to work

Thanks,

Does anyone know some important required things that are needed when compiling my kernel to get the fglrx drivers to work correctly? I may be forgetting to build something in.
