Here is the .so file.

Copy the .tar.gz file to / and
run "sudo tar -zxvf xf86-video-radeonhd-1.2.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz"

That will place the file in the right place in the /usr directory.

Otherwise, just place the radeonhd_drv.so file directly into the
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/ directory.

Note: I'm not sure if the "AllowEmptyInput" "off" is important but
that was critical for me in Archlinux - X wouldn't start without it.
So if X still fails to start then add that to the xorg.conf file (as
described in my previous message.

Cheers,
