Daniel Hahler (blueyed) wrote : Jockey failed to properly install fglrx driver

I have tried to install the fglrx proprietary driver, when Jockey failed after downloading it (I do not remember the actual error message).

The tail of the error log is:

2011-11-17 10:29:49,149 WARNING: /sys/module/fglrx_updates/drivers does not exist, cannot rebind fglrx_updates driver

I am attaching a screenshot of Jockey after the fact and the whole log.
