[Pkg-fglrx-devel] Bug#601326: Bug#601326: Re: Bug#601326: Setting up fglrx-driver (1:10-7-1) fails

[kA kA]

Hmm, where should these two missing config files in the ati directory come from in the first place?
I could not find them in the fglrx-driver package ...

Thanks for all your efforts,
Ralf

so the problem is that the submitter does not have a fglrxrc file on
his system (how he lost that, who knows).  we should be able to fix that
by testing for the presence of each file to preserve, rather than
basing it on whether the /etc/ati directory exists.  

i'll take a look at that when i get a chance.  i'm lowering the
severity since this state is likely due to something this particular
user did wrong.
