Restarted in 2.6.38-11 and was able to install the flgrx driver (NOT the post-release driver)
the post-release driver gave the same error. when I was on the 3.0.0-12 kernel I was not able to install either driver.

##Here I think is where I tried the post-release driver

##here is where I tried the old driver on the old kernel

Could jockey have a mismatch with the kernel version and the available drivers?
