Question ATI on fedora 2 final

When installing ATI drivers it fails.
Help!

Code:
[root@lajt downloads]# rpm -iv --replacefiles --force fglrx-4.3.0-3.14.1.i386.rpm
Förbereder paket för installation ...
fglrx-4.3.0-3.14.1
*** Trying to install a precompiled kernel module.
*** WARNING ***
Tailored kernel module for fglrx not present in your system.
You must go to /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod subdir
and execute './make.sh' to build a fully customed kernel module.
Afterwards go to /lib/modules/fglrx and run './make_install.sh'
in order to install the module into your kernel's module repository.
(see readme.txt for more details.)
 
As of now you can still run your XServer in 2D, but hardware acclerated
OpenGL will not work and 2D graphics will lack performance.
 
failed.
*** Found kernel module build environment, generating kernel module now.

Error:
XFree86 drm includes at /lib/modules/2.6.8-1.521/build/include/../drivers/char/drm do not fit this driver.
This driver is designed to only work with X4.1.0 or higher.
You can match this by getting Linux kernel 2.4.8 or higher.

The first patch worked, the second attempt (why?) did not. What kernel is this?

You don't need the second patch anymore (about REGPARM), since it is included in the last ATI drivers.
Did you install the kernel-sourcecode package ?
You can find on http://fedorafaq.org the instructions to install the ATI driver:
