   None at all.  I only blame selinux because if I disable it then the
thing works. The fglrx module is loaded, and comparing even Xorg.0.log
is the same! (well, except for tiny differences in the 'SAREA' mapping?)

  But the window manager is broken with selinux, no borders on windows
for example.
       How do I get some useful debug?
