lite dumt att ens släppa den, inga X eller 9*** seria ska vara bra med dem drivarna "än"
så min fråga är varför dem släpper dem alls då när så många kort inte kan, eller ska använda sig av dem än. 

Ta hem filen fglrx.txt och lägg den i din hemmapp. Se till att den heter just fglrx.txt annars byt namn på den.

sudo chmod +x fglrx.txt

 ./fglrx.txt -m

 sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
