Thread: DKMS fails to build fglrx 8.632 module


hi guys,

i'm trying install proprietary ati drivers on ubuntu studio system. i'm running custom realtime kernel around linux-rt package, means can't install driver using restricted driver manager.

having built deb packages ati binary distribution i'm not able install fglrx-kernel-source_8.632-0ubuntu1_i386.deb. dpkg has following error:
code:
charles@balthazar:~/downloads/ati$ sudo dpkg -i fglrx-kernel-source_8.632-0ubuntu1_i386.deb   (reading database ... 237827 files , directories installed.)  preparing replace fglrx-kernel-source 2:8.632-0ubuntu1 (using fglrx-kernel-source_8.632-0ubuntu1_i386.deb) ...  removing dkms modules  done.  unpacking replacement fglrx-kernel-source ...  setting fglrx-kernel-source (2:8.632-0ubuntu1) ...  adding module dkms build system  doing initial module build    error!  build of fglrx.ko failed for: 2.6.29.6-rt23-cpm-rt-090728 (i686)  consult make.log in build directory  /var/lib/dkms/fglrx/8.632/build/ more information.  installing initial module    error! not locate fglrx.ko module fglrx in dkms tree.  must run dkms build kernel 2.6.29.6-rt23-cpm-rt-090728 (i686) first.  done.    charles@balthazar:~/downloads/ati$
i realise problem occurs running custom kernel ran command dkms build kernel module ended error:
code:

the make.log file unfortunately empty, have no clue solve problem.

there suggest strategy build driver?

help,

--charles.

i think answer fglrx incompatible new versions of kernel. unlucky me. maybe fixed.

people have been able patch fglrx source, haven't found way works me yet.
