<hr />
<div>This pages provides instructions for building and installing custom packages for the [[fglrx]] driver. This is useful if you are using a custom-compiled kernels and want to use an orderly RPM-based installation.<br />
<br />
==={{Fedora}} 5===<br />
<br />
First, add the [http://rpm.livna.org rpm.livna.org] RPM repository to your [[yum]] configuration. The custom packages will be based on those of rpm.livna.org.<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
yum install xorg-x11-drv-fglrx<br />
VER=8.26.18-1.2.6.17_1.2139_FC5 # copy version string of kmod-fglrx package added by the above command<br />
wget -c http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/5/SRPMS/fglrx-kmod-$VER.src.rpm<br />
mkdir fglrx-workdir; cd fglrx-workdir<br />
rpm2cpio ../fglrx-kmod-$VER.src.rpm <nowiki>|</nowiki> cpio -i<br />
perl -i -pe 'print "#disabled: " if m/BuildRequires: +kernel/' kmodtool<br />
perl -i -pe 'print "#disabled: " if m/Requires: +\$\{kdep\}/' kmodtool<br />
perl -i -pe 's@(^ +ksrc)=.*$@$1=/lib/modules/%{kverrel}/build@' fglrx-kmod.spec<br />
tar czf pack.tgz --exclude pack.tgz .<br />
rpmbuild --tb --clean --target $(uname -m) --define "ksrc /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build" \<br />
--define "kversion $(uname -r)" --define 'kvariants ""' pack.tgz<br />
cd ..; rm -fr fglrx-workdir<br />
sudo rpm -Uvh --oldpackage --replacepkgs ~/rpm/RPMS/$(uname -m)/kmod-fglrx-${VER/.2.6.*/}.$(uname -r).$(uname -m).rpm<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
The xorg-x11-drv-fglrx does not install automatically. Need to do similar work as above to build it<br />
Some livna packages don't have i686 in .spec file, should manaually add them, build <br />
and install using "rpm -ivh --nodeps". <br />
<br />
--For v8.24 driver <br />
<br />
Symlinks need to be re-build in <br />
/usr/lib/Xorg/modules, <br />
also need to run /sbin/modprobe fglrx after installation. <br />
the libGL symlink should point to /usr/lib/ati-fglrx/libGL.so.1.2 <br />
<br />
At this point, only 8.24 works for 9200 card. (tried 8.25 and 8.26 failed)<br />
<br />
--End for 8.24 driver<br />
<br />
After reboot, test driver using glxinfo and fglrxinfo<br />
