(EE) fglrx(0): PowerXpress: Fail to switch libGL link files.
I get this. I believe that creating those links that were mentioned would fix the problem, as I tried to link them and X started and worked right for a while (then crashed, because I think I created the symlinks wrong).

Anton said:
"I've found that fglrx misses links for libGL in /usr/lib/
so I've created the following:
libGL.so -> /usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so
libGL.so.1 -> /usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so.1
libGL.so.1.2 -> /usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so.1.2"

Please fix this, it causes the driver to crash on start of X if these links aren't found.
