I have a Hercules video card with ati 8500. I have installed the fglrx driver with install-fglrx-debian.sh -r. The problem is that the screen when starting X is black, with no signal from the DVi output of the video card. If I change from fglrx to radeon in xorg.conf all is OK, but not direct rendering of course...I have tried to change the Xorg.conf with the last working one, but the result is the same.
???

Thats incorrect. 8500 has direct-rendering with ati or radeon, just when only change driver and you do not reboot then the fgrlx module is still loaded which prevents drm+radeon module from loading. You have to delete fglrx too:
dpkg --purge xorg-driver-fglrx glrx-kernel-$(uname -r) fglrx-control |

Thank you, OK now radeon is working with direct rendering but is slow....
My problem with black screen was with ATI driver. Are you saying that I must remove fglrx before installing ATI? I was thinking that this was made by install-fglrx-debian.sh. |

| You might try fglrx script again, but use -r (remove modeline) option. |
