Hi list!
I downloaded the last ATI drivers (fglrx_6_8_0-8.25.18-1.i386.rpm) from
the official homepage. Since I have a Debian system, I converted the
RPM into a DEB using ALIEN as root.
Don't do that!
Download the (much larger) "driver installer" package
(ati-driver-installer-8.25.18-x86.run). Make it executable (chmod +x),
then "./ati-driver-installer-8.25.18-x86.run --buildpkg Debian/stable"
(or Debian/testing or Debian/unstable depending on which Debian variant
you're running) will create a number of native .deb packages.
I didn't tested it that way, because somebody told me about the
fglrx-package on the debian mirrors (apt-cache search fglrx), which
actually did work very well. Only thing is, that the resolution of
1280x960 couldn't be selected afterwards.
But, thanks for you help!
