I have agp radeon HD 3450 graphic card. I've tried using proprietary driver but i couldn't do a bunch of stuff, movies stuck, etc.. Anyway now i use open source driver from ubuntu repositories, the one that is installed with system.
My problem is this. Resoluton of the screen that best fits me is 1152x644. But in monitor properties i can't set this resolition. Only 1024x768 and 1280x1024.
Fresh install of 12.04
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RS880 [Radeon HD 4200]
'Additional Drivers' shows ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver, and ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver (post-release updates) as not installed. ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver says it installs successfully when I try.
I have an integrated Radeon HD 4200 and it works great in Ubuntu 9.10. The open source driver, the fglrx driver from the Ubuntu repository works as well. I also installed the latest proprietary fglrx driver from ATI, 10.1. Works fantastic even with...
Hei,
I have a 1080P television which I connected my computer to. I am using the default open source Radeon drivers.
The output is only 1080i to my TV and I want to know how I can adjust either xorg or KMS to output 1080P.
Thanks

I've recently upgraded to 12.04 LTS and I have an ATI Radeon HD5570. I've heard that the open source 'Radeon' driver is used by default. However, it wasn't showing anything for me. What I did was I added the 'nomodeset' option to boot up and install fglrx. But it didn't work well for me as it introduced a lot of problems (freezes/glitches).
Hi I have 2 amd graphics cards (1 integrated, other one is through the pci) and on windows it works fine, but if I install either one of the amd propitiatory drivers it works on both screens but unity gets messed up, and the system runs very buggy.
I have recently have upgraded to Ubutnu 11.10 and I have not been able to activate by ATI Radeon Mobility HD5400 driver. I have been able to activate the ATI/AMD propreitary FGLRX graphics driver using the AMD wiki, but I cannot activate the (post-release update) driver.
I have installed Ubuntu 11.10 on my lenovo laptop and found a "chip" image on the top of the screen. It showed me to install 3 drivers
ATI/AMD Proprietary FGLRX graphics drivers (post-release updates)
Broadcom STA wireless drivers
ATI/AMD Proprietary FGLRX graphics drivers
When I installed 1st one, it showed me some error so, I installed 2nd one it was successful.
I am using Ubuntu 12.04(32-bit) and I installed the AMD Radeon drivers from the Ubuntu repos using Additional Drivers. After installing the proprietary driver I experienced a lot of screen tearing. So I enabled tear Free Desktop to reduce tearing. It has reduced the screen tearing a bit but it is still pretty bad.
