I damage the ATI Installation an Configuration - How do i fix this ?

Hi everybody.

Well, making experiments, tests, and more... i damage my catalyst installation.

The thing is, that for some reason, some day, the GLXGEARS and FGL_GLXINFO stop working, and COMPIZ start to behave really bad. So i start to reading forums, and some other things and make experiments.

Some of the change that i did work by a few moments, and crash...

In one of the test, i got the stupid idea of delete the "/etc/ati" folder, and now X doesn't start.

I try:

pacman -S catalyst
pacman -Rc catalyst
pacman -Sf catalyst

To get the environment again, but, nope....

So... ¿ how can i restore the X and Catalyst without need to reinstall the whole system ?

Thanks in advance!

pacman -Sf catalyst-utils should bring back /etc/ati, iirc.
