fglrxKonf is a Kommander frontend for ATI fglrx video card driver utility "aticonfig".

It can be used to configure the newly installed fglrx driver, setup tv-out and different screen configuration options. It also reads and displays the fglrx configuration from /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.

It is tested on Ubuntu Dapper Drake (6.06) system with fglrx 8.26.18 version, but should also work with older fglrx versions, that provide "aticonfig" utility. I created it since I found that fglrx-control gui tool, installed with fglrx driver, is constantly diminishing in features and basically useless.

IMPORTANT: fglrxkonf has to be started as root to work. You can use command line command "kdesu kmdr-executor fglrxkonf.kmdr" to start it.

Please send comments or bug reports to the author of the program. I could enhance the program to use more of fglrx

Requirements:
Kommander

What's New in This Release:
a major rewrite of the program to include many more functions;
now the script asks for the root rights itself, just double-click it
TV geometry does not seem to be working, but it is "aticonfig" fault, not mine
