ATI HD2400 slow with native driver on 11.2

view story
linux-howto

http://forums.opensuse.org – I have ATI HD2400 card and used normal Linux-drivers on 11.2 64 bit. I tryed the Catalyst 9.11 driver before but it does not compile correctly on 11.2, so I unloaded it and went back to standard driver. I only notice things are slow: building the screen goes slow but is acceptable. One thing that is very irritating is scrolling in the browser (Firefox)..it takes ages to the page to stop again ad right point. I wonder if there are any settings I can change to get a better performance. See my xorg.conf here: PasteBin.be Thanks in advance (Distributions)

Suse radeon HD 5850 drivers 3 years 10 weeks ago

Hi,

I have been having lots of trouble getting my system up and running after I installed a Radeon HD 5850 on my suse machine.

I did as they told by uninstalling the previous drivers and installing the new ones as stated in ATI Catalyst™ 10.2 Linux Installer Note.

... 2)sh ./ati-driver-installer-10-2-x86.x86_64.run ...

Hi,

I've just installed 11.2 over 10.3 (I kept my old /home). Any displaying is now very slow (both in Gnome & Xfce): e.g. if I bring up a hidden window to front, it takes up to several seconds for its content to show. Even scrolling text in a terminal is darn slow, and Xorg jumps to ~100% cpu usage then.

I am struggling against the black screen in my laptop (pavilion dv7 4177nr) during four days without good results. Iam following the recomendations of unoficial wikipeda http://www2.cchtml.com/ about install fglrx, or, at least leave my screen OK with free drivers OpenGL

But I suposse that I have a broken pkg o something strange,

My information is in these pastebins:

Dear all,

Graphic effects are slow 1 year 14 weeks ago

İ'm using a HP Pavilion G6. Graphic card is HD6470M and switchable with HD4200. I have installed the proprietary driver in additional drivers. But graphic effects are very slow.

I also tried install up to date driver from ATI/AMD website but after restart system is not starting. Even if system starts don't work properly. So i removed the driver.

Now i am using the proprietary driver.

Hey guys, I've just decided to start using Ubuntu again, first I'll give you my problems(s):

I'm dual booting along side windows 7 (I used wubi)

My computer is dead slow running ubuntu, which is strange since I have 4gb of ram with (I believe) a 2.1ghz processor (64 bit).
