I'm trying to do this with 2.6.0-test5-mm1. With your patch I can build the module, but later it complains that fglrx.ko cannot be inserted in the kernel:

bash-2.05b# modprobe fglrx
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.0-test5-mm1/kernel/drivers/char/drm/fglrx.ko): Invalid module format

here is working fine

(the patch is in portage now)

It compiles well but don't load on mm-sources.

This is the last part of my dmesg with 2.6.0-test5-mm3. The same with mm1:


Linux agpgart interface v0.100 (c) Dave Jones

as I said here is working fine, please attach some other infos (eg emerge info) and your hardware specs.
