Hello i am currently having an issue installing the FGLRX driver in slackware 13.1. I use a customer kernel due to buggy acpi on my toshiba laptop. The steps i took to compile my kerne are as followed. hu

make mrproper in /usr/src/linux directory
patch /usr/src/linux directory
copy kernel config from /boot directory
make menguconfig and load config
the make all
make modules install
i have also tried make install as well
then i mopy system.map the kernel file and config file into /boot directory
edit lilo
reboot ... everything works fine acpi works properly like before.. now the problem comes.. I try to install the fglrx drivers and i get the error message am i doing something wrong setting up my kernel r is it another issue.. I am also having this issue on my gentoo box i have. Any help would greatly appreciated.

i'm just shooting in the dark here, but when you compiled your custom kernel did you use versioning support? if i remember correctly, there's an option for that.
also, you may want to try the new catalyst 10.5. maybe those work...

hi, install slackware64-current it's rather to slackware64 13.1 and after that ati catalyst 10.5 but have the same problem in log file after install the massage is you may need to add symlink:
this is my log
[Message] Kernel Module : Trying to install a precompiled kernel module.
[Message] Kernel Module : Precompiled kernel module version mismatched.
[Message] Kernel Module : Found kernel module build environment, generating kernel module now.
AMD kernel module generator version 2.1
Error:
kernel includes at /lib/modules/2.6.33.4/build/include do not match current kernel.
they are versioned as ""
instead of "2.6.33.4".
you might need to adjust your symlinks:
- /usr/include
- /usr/src/linux
[Error] Kernel Module : Failed to compile kernel module - please consult readme

After you've extracted the installer, simply use the command, find, to locate the patches for Slackware which are included in the installer. You don't even need to extract the installer if you don't need the 32 bit OpenGL libraries for WINE. Simply build the two packages for Slackware and then install those packages.

10x to all it,s seems start to work :-)
used sh ati ....... --buildpkg Slackware/All, after installpkg *.* reboot .... , make me smile :-)
