Postby vexaxv on Sun May 06, 2012 8:33 pm

when i went to the repos i installed all fglrx packages, then i found out cinnamon gives me an error saying "cant start session" and the game i wanted to run (second life) gives me a glx error..so for some reason fglrx isnt working on my system and i can only get cinnamon running again if i uninstall all fglrx packages, i have a radeon 4200. so can someone please help me install fglrx the right way and get it working?
