64bit fglrx Failures

At this point, the 64bit fglrx driver for my ATI Radeon 9800Pro card is almost useless. It rocks for 2D, but all 3D programs cause the system to hard-lock. I can not even ssh into it to kill the X server.

One evening soon, when I have an hour to work on it, I am going to try to get some kind of core dumps out of the driver, if I can. If that does not work, then I will ask ATI for a debugging version of the driver and send them the dumps.

Hopefully, there will soon be a newer version of the fglrx driver for AMD64 that works.
