Hello

This is how i managed to install ati driver for my Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop:

First I added the Livna repository:

as root, run the following:

rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-5.rpm

Then from the Add/Remove Software application I searched for 'kmod-fglrx' and selected the matcing version of my installed kernel.

And finally, reboot.

(I also had to set SELinux Options to permisive because I got some error on opengl.so :Permision Denied)

This worked for me.
