Problem is that even though we could have considered asking for a testing 
update from sid since fglrx is crappy in any version, I don't know wether it 
is reasonable now, since it would need some decent testing.

The plan could be to fix the package in lenny, as well as uploading a new 
package for sid, wait for the bugs to come, and if it is still possible, 
consider proposing an update.

The issue is that it is quite hard for me to test the hardware now. Actually, 
I don't plan on continuing the maintenance of this package after lenny is 
released.
