It _does_ install with Xorg 6.9. At least I'm using it here on Debian
unstable with latest Xorg. However, I had to recompile the fglrx modules
because the old module for 6.8 would not work correctly. I'm not using
the fglrx-kernel-src package as the debian packages never built
correctly here. So I ran the ati-installer, patched firegl_public.c
(needed for recent kernels), recompiled and (nearly) everything works
like a charm.
