+</I>&gt;<i> You can try to backup old file:
+</I>&gt;<i> mv /etc/ati/signature /etc/ati/signature.orig
+</I>&gt;<i> and copy the /etc/ati/signature from previous package
+</I>&gt;<i> (I saw it on the net, but I'm not sure it actually will work)
+</I>&gt;<i> and add it to /etc/ati/signature on your system.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> For simplicity I have an extracted signature here:
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://tmb.mine.nu/Mageia/Cauldron/testing/fglrx/signature">http://tmb.mine.nu/Mageia/Cauldron/testing/fglrx/signature</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> and reboot.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> if it does not work, just rename the backup file back and reboot again
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>
+And you can then try the sed hack here if you want:
