Re: ATI Radeon M6 LY in Edgy - does some crashing - how do I debug?

Does this mean compiling? I mean, I'm OK with that, as long as it doesn't
require tons of configuring, and, most importantly, it compiles and runs
correctly. :)

If I have to compile, I'm hoping there's a way to fully remove it, so I
can reinstall the standard version through Edgy repos.
