Anyone able to get the "fglrx" driver (fglrx-4.3.0-3.9.0.i386.rpm) 
working with the FC2 kernel 2.6.6-1.435.2.3?

Someone said they had gotten it to work with 2.6.6-1.435.2.1... but not 
2.3.  My wireless card (IPW2100) is set up with the 2.3 architecture and 
I haven't found rpm's that work with 2.1... so I'm hesitant to revert 
back to 2.1

Using files:
fglrx-4.3.0-3.9.0.i386.rpm
fglrx-3.9.0-fc2-2.6.6.patch

The patch works great... the sh make.sh works well. But on the final sh 
make_install.sh... it's still failing...

"fglrx:firegl_stub_register] *ERROR* Fire GL kernel module has to be 
loaded prior to any other DRM kernel module!
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx 
(/lib/modules/2.6.6-1.435.2.3/kernel/drivers/char/drm/fglrx.ko): 
Operation not permitted
failed."

The installed kernel-sourcecode matches that of the kernel I'm using.

Any help would be appreciated... pulling my hair out is only doing so 
much to sooth my frustrations.
