Thanks for the link which contained useful information.

But, I can't get past this problem:

[root@raptorfed build_mod]# sh make.sh
ATI module generator V 2.0
==========================
initializing...
Error:
XFree86 drm includes at
/lib/modules/2.6.5-1.358smp/build/include/../drivers/char/drm do not fit
this driver.
This driver is designed to only work with X4.1.0 or higher.
You can match this by getting Linux kernel 2.4.8 or higher.

Any ideas?
