[LAU] Ati driver installation for low latency kernel (Kubuntu)

[Matthias Schönborn]

Hi list!

This is my first post and I hope it's not too off-topic.. I've already posted 
it in the Kubuntu forums but got no reply, so I hope that someone here can 
help me.

My problem is as follows: On my notebook I have installed Kubuntu, and for my 
everyday work I use a generic kernel, because the low latency kernel would 
drain too much power, so that the battery would be empty very soon. For 
recording I use a low latency kernel.

Now the problem is, that in the Ati driver installation, the kernel is 
modified. If I install the driver while using the generic kernel, it works 
well with the generic kernel. If I then boot the low latency kernel and 
install the driver, it only works with the low latency kernel, but not 
anymore with the generic kernel. Now I would be fine without 3D acceleration 
while I'm using the low latency kernel, but the annoying thing is that 
sometimes the system freezes if the driver doesn't work properly. 

Can anyone help me solve the issue, or does someone know a workaround? I would 
be most gratefull!

Thanks,
Matthias
