 It is possible to patch the module so that it builds on 64/32, but it fails
 to work *at all*. This has been acknowledged by AMD.
 
+Screen flickering with VariBright enabled:
+==========================================
+fglrx contains a feature called "VariBright" which tries to automatically
+adjust screen brightness to screen content in order to save power.
+Under certain circumstances, this may exhibit a seemingly arbitrary
+"flickering" of the screen. You can disable this feature in the power
+options of amdcccle (Catalyst Control Center, included in fglrx-control).
