You can start with installing the right kernel-source via you MCC. It's the blue-like terminal thingy. Go to installing software and search for kernel-source. Put in the requested cd or dvd from Mandriva. I've also found it needs libstdc++5. So also install this lib. The same way as you did the kernel-source.

 

By the way, are you Dutch or can you read and understand Dutch? Because we've written an HowTo for our Dutch Mandriva-board on how to install ATi-drivers on Mandriva.

Guys, what does this mean:

 

* pre-install fglrx /sbin/modprobe "-k" "agpgart"

 

If you are using the 2.6 kernel, add the following line instead:

 

* install fglrx /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install fglrx && { /sbin/modprobe via-agp; /bin/true; } #change via-agp to your chipset agp driver

 

I have a Radeon 9550 card.
