Ok, so I was running mdk9.2, and me being the newbie, i mauled it. So, I downloaded 10.0 Community and installed it. everything is goin good sense it has the 2.6 kernel with nforce already installed (which is what got me to screw up 9.2)
so I try to install the ATI driver off of their website. I got out of xwindows, ran the command
rpm -Uh --force fglrx-4.3.0-3.7.6.i386.rpm
in the directory where the rpm file was.
looked like it installed ok, so I ran the fglrxconfig util, and configured what I thought was a working 2d/3d driver for my 9600.
So i load up xwindows, and I try to run a gl screensaver to test it, and it runs extremely slow. like a software rendering, except the textures are smooth like hardware.
what gives? anyone have any input?
thanks for the help!
