> Hi,

You probably should try to do the module assistant round before installing 
fglrx-driver. Indeed, fglrx-driver has a dependency on the virtual package 
fglrx-modules (meaning kernel modules). This dependency is defaulted to a 
precompiled package, in order to make it more easy to the majority of users 
who use a standard kernel.

In your case (and mine), I guess you have a kernel for which there is no 
pre-compiled module package. But the dependency system resolves this by 
proposing you a standard kernel..

What you should do is, as root:

module-assistant -t a-i fglrx
(drink a cofee/tea/...)

I even think that this might be enough, but just in case:
apt-get install fglrx-driver.

And you should be done.
