[Pkg-fglrx-devel] Bug#547385: fglrx-driver: does not work with 2.6.31

[Jan De Luyck]

Package: fglrx-driver
Version: 1:9-9-1
Severity: normal


fglrx fails to load against 2.6.31, spewing out this error:

fglrx: Unknown symbol find_task_by_vpid

fix as taken from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/394985/comments/7
works without problems as far as I can tell (Radeon HD4850 card)
