My video card is working fine, I have no screen problem.
I am trying to generate an xorg.conf so I did:
[ Logout ]
sudo service gdm stop
[ Move away xorg.conf.back and xorg.conf.fglrx-0 that were in /etc/X11 ]
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
sudo X -configure
But this last command segfaults:

Note the line Can't load FireGL DRM library (libfglrxdrm.so)
Note: I do have file /usr/lib/fglrx/xorg/modules/linux/libfglrxdrm.so
It is strange that it segfaults whereas I can use Gnome with no problem but well...
Might be related: I tried to install the driver from ATI's website recently, and from then glxgears crashes at start.
How can I generate xorg.conf in those conditions?
It might or might not involve solving the segfault problem.
