At the End of the XFree Log will come this (2.4.21-pre7) :

(II) fglrx(0): Desc: ATI Fire GL DRM kernel module (II) fglrx(0): Kernel Module version matches driver. (II) fglrx(0): Kernel Module Build Time Information:

2.5
I've not had the time to do a 2.4 backport. Several other folks have tried, though as the 2.5 code is still constantly moving, they tend to fall behind.

Sadly, there are no fully open drivers for any AGP x8 cards still. I'm still hoping this will change over time.
