ATI fglrx 8.26.18-1

hey,
I just upgraded the ati-fglrx to 8.26.18-1 and now xorg hangs on I try to start it. Does anyone know if there's an issue with the new ati driver?

Do you have xorg7 ?

If so, you might want to try the new ATI drivers supporting xorg7.
www.ati.com -> drivers -> linux -> Radeon

yup, got xorg. I guess I could try them, however, it's just easier to use pacman and install the them you know.

Re: ATI fglrx 8.26.18-1

do you have libstdc++5 installed?   Also, make sure ati-fglrx-utils is 8.26.18 as well.

pacman -S libstdc++5 ati-fglrx-utils

See how that works.
