Hi, my friend has a big problem. He has Ati 4570 and uses Catalyst drivers. Command glxgears don't work and fglrx module not found. Catalyst can't install fglrx.

Install Catalyst from either the AUR or the unofficial [catalyst] repo.

Install Catalyst from either the AUR or the unofficial [catalyst] repo.

His catalyst is from aur and we tried install catalyst from "catalyst repo", but no new packages.

If we install dkms, dkms added fglrx, but cannot build it "Failed to build fglrx-8.801 with DKMS"
