Thanks for this guide. I would like to add that the fglrx packages are found in the “non-free” section of debian’s repositories, which are disabled by default.

Been using openSuse for awhile, and while everything works I didn’t feel I was learning much about Linux; everything was GUI driven and most everything was loaded during install.

So to scratch my ‘learn more about Linux’ itch I decided to delve into Debian. Since I do have an ATI 9800 Pro video card I wanted to get 3D acceleration working. I have tried numerous how-to’s to load the ATI driver with no success, that is until I used your info. Worked like a charm. Much appreciated.
