Though, I'd kill to see CCC ported to Linux in Mono
That'd have to be postponed until they get all the CCC options working in the driver first ...

I'd like to see fglrxconfig finally being able to recognize my Xpress200M !!
It seems to be the same fglrxconfig version present in the 8.14 about six months ago...

It's been impossible for me to make my Xpress200M work in my laptop, but I think now it could be a problem of getting the right xorg.conf.

New drivers have something called aticonfig, IIRC. Perhaps you should give it a shot. I can't really say since I always edit my xorg.conf by hand.

There is absolutely no reason you shouldnt be able to install the driver. The installer should work fine. BUT its up to the linux distrubition to later package that driver in their repository and distribute it however they handle packages. If you can't install it, then you either need to change your distro to a more popular one like ubuntu, or learn more about how linux handles packages, and how to configure X.

Ok, I gave it a shot, but didn't work either.

fglrxconfig shouldnt be trying to detect the card(it might be but I doubt it). All it does is go through options of what you want in your xorg.conf..
I think your issue is with your distro(which is most likley b/c your running 64bit which is foolish IMO if your running a primary machine like a laptop) and not with the ati driver, unless someone here with a Xpress200m and a different distro can prove me wrong.

Well, I use Ubuntu 5.10 AMD64 version and it and ATI drives have some problems... :P *not a linux guru* the how-to that I read in ubuntu forums was helpful but, for some reason I couldn't install the drivers right... I think it's because the installer didn't recognise my card right... but I'll do clean install in next week so let's hope for the best

Well, I understand that, but the question was, what do you want to see in ATi's drivers. I can't comprehend why this is not included in CCC.
