[elrepo] kmod-fglrx

[Stephen Isard]

Hello,

I have a naive, "this looks too good to be true" question.

I have been using the proprietary amd-catalyst X driver from the amd 
website, meaning that whenever I upgrade the kernel, I have to run their 
uninstaller and installer again.

The elrepo kmod-fglrx tiki page has the wording "It is built to depend 
upon the specific ABI provided by a range of releases of the same 
variant of the Linux kernel and not on any one specific build", which 
seems to suggest that if I used kmod-fglrx and the elrepo fglrx-x11-drv 
rpm, I wouldn't have to uninstall/reinstall for kernel upgrades (at 
least within, say, RHEL/Centos/SL 6.x).  Is that right?  I'd be very 
pleased if it were.
