DKMS autoload fails for fglrx (ATI proprietary driver) 

This message flashes on the screen at boot time, after the latest debian kernel update.  Unfortunately it doesn't appear in the log anywhere.I suppose the solution is to patch the driver like the following link. 
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/12/255
In more detail, go to directory
/usr/src/fglrx-8.681
Edit the file kcl_io.c, and add the following line
#include .
Then run the following:
sudo dkms build -m fglrx -v 8.681

Xsession: Login for (user) is disabled 

After upgrading my kernel, I got the error message, and X would not allow me to run a session.
Xsession: Login for (user) is disabled
This is fixed by editing /etc/shells, and adding a line for the LDAP-specified shell (in my case, /bin/PHSshell).
