!So what do I do?
Well, you need a few things:
-; http://www.schneider-digital.de/html/download_ati.html : the RPM (inside a zip) for the 4.3.0 driver, control panel, and various other stuff. alien(1) is your friend if you run Debian on your desktop; but if you do, go and try RedHat 9 straight away.

fgl_glxgears doesn't run on my machine (error: Error: couldn't get fbconfig) and I've love to know why. -- CraigBox

+WillemSmit -- Last night i rebuilt my kernel and compiled the fglrx ati drivers after the reboot agp didn't work. I had to install the agp module with agp_try_unsupported=1 before I got X to work. Once this was done fgl_glxgears worked 100% running at 650 fps. But somehow i must have screwed something up, because after another boot I also got the same error as you (Error: couldn't get fbconfig). If you somehow figured out what causes this can you please leave a comment here so I can fix mine too.
