linux-howto

http://ubuntuforums.org – I was just wondering if anyone has used the new drivers on karmic yet? I was wondering how well they work. The last release (9.9) gave me all sorts of problems. Also, if I install fglrx from the repositories will that install the new 9.10 driver? And one more thing, does the new driver help much with battery life on your laptop? (Hardware)

[ubuntu] Which Driver? 30 weeks 2 days ago

My graphic card is an ATI HD Radeon 5430 series

After a fresh 12.10 install the driver in use is X.org X server - AMD/ATI display driver wrapper from xserver-xorg-video-ati (open source ,tested)

Is it safe for me to install one of the fglrx proprietary drivers as I am reading of all kinds of problems with fglrx in 12.10, though most of what I have read seem to involve older cards than mine

Hi there! The ati graphics-card i have installet in my laptop is HD 5470. I have installed the drivers both from the repositories AND from System Settings -> Additional Drivers -> ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver. I can locate the Catalyst Control Center, but i cannot open it.

I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04.2 and when I went to install the proprietary AMD/ATI drivers, I was given three choices: ATI FGLRX -post release update ATI FGLRX -experimental beta Experimental AMD binary Xorg driver and kernel module

I installed first the post release update, but when I went to additional drivers it stated the driver is activated but not currently in use.

I have the ATI (AMD) HD7870 graphic card and I had just installed Ubuntu. With the Open Source drivers the desktop works fine; however, since I have a newer card, I'd like the proprietary drivers installed.

However, whenever I install it either from Additional Drivers, or from the AMD's website, I am able to log in, but then compiz immediately crashes and all I see is my desktop background.

I have a question on ATI Drivers. From what I understand there is 2 ways of installing it. One is to go to Hardware drivers that's under System->Administration and activate Restricted ATI driver. Second way is to go to amd.com and download latest driver and then install it.

Hey everyone, I just got Steam, and downloaded a game. It took a while, then told me I need the latest OpenGL software for my driver. So, I went to amd.com, found my driver( for the Radeon HD 6570 ) and, not to mention I couldn't do a non-force install, whenever it finished installing, and I rebooted, Unity was gone.

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
