Phorogit HOWTO?

[Christian_L]

OK, maybe I'm just blind and stupid, but I can't find the Sticky/Readme/FAQ/HOWTO that describes how to use the files on Phorogit... :confused:

I found this message that lets me pull the latest files to my computer (http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?p=19018), but how do I combine them with the files created by the ati-driver-installer-....run file?

Especially Fedora-specific help (like: do I need to build rpms) would be appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Taken from my script - set DRIVER, DISTRIB_ID and DISTRIB_CODENAME correctly before! VER needs to be set, but it is not really importantant if it is the correct version. For Debian/Ubuntu my script has automatic update feature using the -u option.

rm -rf fglrx-install
sh $DRIVER --extract fglrx-install
cd fglrx-install
wget -qO- "http://phorogit.com/index.php?p=fglrx-packaging.git&dl=targz"|tar zxv
rm -rf packages
mv -v fglrx-packaging packages
bash ati-installer.sh $VER --buildpkg $DISTRIB_ID/$DISTRIB_CODENAME

Ah, looks easy... I'll try it when I get home.

Thanks a lot, Kano!
