Hi there,
I have an ati laptop, and to try out the livna drivers I
upgraded as in
yum --enablerepo=livna-testing --enablerepo=updates-testing install
xorg-x11-drv-fglrx
This didn't work:
Running Transaction
Installing: kernel #########################

Installing: kmod-fglrx #########################

Installing: xorg-x11-drv-fglrx #########################

FATAL: Module fglrx not found.
Removing : ati-fglrx #########################
[4/4]
Installed: xorg-x11-drv-fglrx.i386 0:8.23.7-2.lvn5
Dependency Installed: kernel.i686 0:2.6.16-1.2069_FC5 kmod-fglrx.i686
0:8.23.7-3.2.6.16_1.2069_FC5
Complete!
I booted the new 2069 fine, but after a couple of hours I have a dead
system. It may be unrelated. The symptom is that on boot something
goes wrong in 'making udev', related to 'do_page_fault'; the actual
error seems to be different every time I boot. The 2054 and 2069
kernels both give the same error.
I can get in with the rescue disk, but I don't know what to fix.
Any suggestions?
Thank you,
Bill
