Do not run sax2 after installation.

Check if symlink to Xgl is created properly:

ll /usr/bin/X
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Oct 21 23:02 /usr/bin/X -> /usr/bin/Xgl

If it is not created, create it.

Remove any compiz autostart scripts and reboot.
I'm confused - what is the reboot for?

A simple way to tell someone to stop x session :o) ..

Is my guess

Correct, didn't want to confuse with init 3 && lsmod | grep fglrx ||
modprobe fglrx && init 5 thing.

I think I've said the 8.41 drivers may not work for your card, so
please check ati website for the correct version and install that with
1-click.

rm /usr/bin/X && ln -s /usr/bin/Xgl /usr/binX

Hope you get it working

Hmm, alright, I'll dump the 8.41 drivers, reinstall and then 1-click for
the 3rd time and give it another go. Don't worry, I'm good with bouncing
back and forth between runlevels. I know I can make this work!
