don't use 10-4, use latest current.

I'll have to update that fglrx support message, always use current first before trying anything else.

also, please don't post the entire log file, use paste.debian.net or another paste web site and post the url to the paste.

Nothing went wrong in the install itself, so it's not an sgfxi issue, it's a fglrx issue.

Your card is I'm sure simply too new for the 10-4 driver.

I've updated the video alert messages to indicate more clearly the support status, I'd forgotten to update those after the 10-4 driver stopped being the current one.

Thanks for the quick response, h2. Was able to get it to work with the following:

1) liquorix kernel 2.6.33-5.dmz.2-liquorix-amd64

2) Radeon proprietary driver 10-4

Will look at your new alert messages...also try the latest on same kernel
