After trying again, and also installing the debug pkg, kerneldebug was
added to fullfill dependencies.
Now the install was allright, an Ati icon appeared in the kick-off menu,
but that does not work:

Commando 'fireglcontrolpanel ' is niet gevonden.
(command " not found)

Sax showed 3D acceleration supported.
3D games work, but too slow..
After a few times restartx (new session) the 3d games worked allright..

So finaly!
Hope the 3D desktop will work now also...
