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 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 been trying to set up my vizio hd tv as a monitor for my pc trough hdmi,
i get video not as good as it is on windows 7 but ok i can deal with that is not that bad.
my problem is that i get no audio, the sound stays in my laptop.
this is a list of things i done to try to fix this issue:
ran additional drivers app.
i just installed ubuntu day ago and im total newb in this system.
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 just installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu (12.04.1 LTS 64 bit). I formated my PC completely & enabled updates during the installation.
After the installation was complete, I went on updating my software.
I can't seem to successfully install ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver (post release updates).
Ubuntu 11.10
ATI All In Wonder video card
I have attached screen shots of System Info - Additional Drivers, and jockey.log
I've searched Google and Ubuntu forums but can't seem to find anything that applied to my problem.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
Cheers,
Bill Roberts
I am following these instructions to install the fglrx drivers. When I am running sudo sh amd-driver-12-6-x86_64.run it tells me fglrx is already installed; even though I ran the commands to remove it. So I added the --force option anyway and went through the installer; here is the output:
Created directory fglrx-install.rUnXwA
Verifying archive integrity...
My computer uses a Radeon HD 6950.
