[GRLUG] linux and fglrx driver for Radeon card

[Eric Hartwell]

Hi all, 

anyone have experience with fglrx driver? I've attached the xorg.conf and 
noticed that no matter what video ram i specify in bios (128M dedicated and 
up to 128M more can be shared ) i cant use the glx driver. 

thanks, 

eah

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the

# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
#	Option	"XkbModel"	"microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
#	Option	"XkbLayout"	"de"
# or:
#	Option	"XkbLayout"	"de"
#	Option	"XkbVariant"	"nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
#	Option	"XkbOptions"	"ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
#	Option	"XkbOptions"	"ctrl:nocaps"
