Hello<br>
<br>
<br>
Sorry to break bad news early in the week but unfortunately
there is no way to use fglrx with the new CentOS release, the
drivers supplied by ATI are not compatible with the version of Xorg
included in the distribution. Somewhere in the X logs there should
be a line mentioning this.<br>
IF you are lucky ( i.e. depending on your chipset ) you might be
able to use the new drivers provided by ATI . See
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMDGPU-PRO-Driver-for-Linux-Release-Notes.aspx">https://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMDGPU-PRO-Driver-for-Linux-Release-Notes.aspx</a>
( make sure you read their docs prior to attempting anything ).<br>
