I was expecting this would install fglrx drivers for My Readon 7000 (to get TV Out working)
But I can't see fglrx in /lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/kernel/drivers/char/drm/

You need to do pacman -S ati-drivers afterwards.

PLEASE NOTE:
ATI drivers do not function with the stock Arch Linux kernel.
To function the drivers require agp support build as a module.

Also, fglrx isn't a driver that's built into the kernel, so it's not in the /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/ tree. It just gets thrown into /lib/modules/`uname -r`/video/

Hi ,
Yes I've noticed that fglrx.ko is in /lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/video/
I copied fglrx.ko to /lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/kernel/drivers/char/drm/ as well.
When I boot with 2.6.14-archck kernel it saysa fglrx is not found.
Please I need more help

Hi,
Just tried depmod -ae then rebooted,
FATAL fglrx.ko not found in lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/kernel/drivers/char/drm/
Then I deleted fglrx.ko from lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/kernel/drivers/char/drm/ (I copied fglrx to this dir)
Now fglrx.ko is only in /lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/video/
Then depmod -ae
while rebooting FATAL fglrx.ko not found in lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/video
Could this module made with a diffrent Kernel version?

Are you sure you're booting into the archck kernel? What's
uname -r
say?

That's odd. I've got the same package versions as you installed. I've got an ATI Radeon 9600+.
As well:
$ ls /lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/video/
fglrx.ko
$ find /lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/ -name fglrx.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/video/fglrx.ko
So, I have the module and it's only in the one place.
Everything works fine for me. Modprobe goes off without a hitch. Wish I could help you further.

Thanks Cerebral ,
I have the module:
[root@localhost ~]# ls /lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/video/
fglrx.ko
I removed the module from the other dir.
My card is Radeon 7000 PCI 32Mb ( ATI Technologies Inc Radeon VE QY) which is RT100 chip. (As far as I know)
Pacman ati-drivers are meant for r350, r300, r250 and r200 chipsets.(pacman -Qi ati-drivers)
Because of this I am going to do this trick :

Desperate times need desperate measures.
I'll post the outcome.

If anyone is interested Here is the summary:
If you have old ATI card (Radeon 7xxx) pacman ati-drivers may not work.
Download atitvout prog from google do make make install
change xorg.conf Device Section Driver to vesa. (Previously you would have had readon)
Section "Device" #added by hand for TV Card
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "vesa"
VendorName "ATI Technologies, Inc."
BoardName "ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon 7000 (RV100 VE QY)"
Screen 0Then Reboot the Pc while TV is connected.
Use below commands:
/usr/local/sbin/atitvout detect
/usr/local/sbin/atitvout vbe
/usr/local/sbin/atitvout -f
/usr/local/sbin/atitvout pal autoThis worked for me. I am using xorg 11R6.8.2-6

You might also want to try:
inmod /lib/modules/2.6.14-archck/video/fglrx.ko
to see if it loads at all.
I had to put that in rc.local for some reason on an earlier version of the ati-drivers (custom PKGBUILD).

The ATI drivers do not support Radeon 7000. The full list of supported cards can be seen when running fglrxconfig:
==============================================================================
ATI - FireGL - WORKSTATION GRAPHICS ACCELERATOR
==============================================================================
This program will create the ATI "xorg.conf" file
- based on your selections - for the following video cards...
- ATI FireGL V3100 / V3200 / V5000 / V5100 / V7100
- ATI FireGL X1 / X2 / X3 / Z1 / T2
- ATI FireGL 8700 / 8800
- ATI Mobility FireGL T2 / 9100 / V5000
- ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 / 9200 / 9600 /9800
- ATI Mobility Radeon X700
- ATI Radeon 8500 / 9000 / 9100 / 9200
- ATI Radeon 9500 / 9550 / 9600 / 9700 / 9800
- ATI Radeon X300 / X600 / X700 / X800 / X850
- ATI IGP Radeon 9100 / 9200/n - ATI IGP Mobility Radeon 9000 / 9100/n
The "xorg.conf" file usually resides in /etc/X11.
Being able to read someone else's code is a *good thing*. Not a fundamental right.
