Hi,

I'm trying to install the fglrx-driver package on a t5735 hp thin client. This pc uses a Mobile AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 2100+ and uses a 686 kernel image. However, when I try to install the fglrx-driver , apt tries to install a 486 kernel image and fglrx modules : 

pcvlf1953:/etc/apt# dpkg -l | grep linux-image
ii  linux-image-2.6-686                  2.6.26+17             Linux 2.6 image on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/P4
ii  linux-image-2.6.26-1-686             2.6.26-12             Linux 2.6.26 image on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/P4
pcvlf1953:/etc/apt# apt-get install fglrx-driver
Reading package lists... Done

The following extra packages will be installed:
  fglrx-atieventsd fglrx-glx fglrx-modules-2.6.26-1-486 linux-image-2.6.26-1-486
Suggested packages:
  fglrx-control linux-doc-2.6.26
Recommended packages:
  fglrx-modules fglrx-source
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  fglrx-atieventsd fglrx-driver fglrx-glx fglrx-modules-2.6.26-1-486 linux-image-2.6.26-1-486
0 upgraded, 5 newly installed, 0 to remove and 14 not upgraded.
Need to get 29.3MB of archives.
After this operation, 90.4MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]?

Adding the 686 packages manually doesn't help, fglrx-driver still wants the 486 packages.

Thanks in advance !

Peter.
