Title: fglrx (not installed): fglrx kernel module failed to build Status in “fglrx-installer” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: just upgraded from 12.04 and i had to change to gnome classic to see any gui whatsoever.. then i did this to fix my problem.. taken from :http://askubuntu.com/questions/74171/is-my-ati-graphics- card-supported-in-ubuntu Official ATI binaries from the ATI site To install the latest ATI 12.6 drivers follow this, people are reporting that updating their driver solves some problems with Unity and Gnome-Shell You will need to remove all the current fglrx packages from your system and download the driver from the ATI site. Remove the fglrx drivers if previously installed them (if any of these returns errors ie: file not found, package not found ignore it) sudo sh /usr/share/ati/fglrx-uninstall.sh sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx fglrx_* fglrx-amdcccle* fglrx-dev* Download the newest ATI driver (current version is 12.6) wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/amd-driver-installer-12-6-x86.x86_64.run If you have a 64 bit system, then install this before anything sudo apt-get install ia32-libs Once downloaded go to the file location and set it to run as executable cd /path_of_the_file chmod 755 amd-driver-installer-12-3-x86.x86_64.run For 32/64 bit Ubuntu use these steps to install sh ./amd-driver-installer-12-3-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/oneiric sudo dpkg -i fglrx*.deb Once the driver is installed you need to start up a new xorg.conf file with this command sudo aticonfig --initial -f Reboot sudo reboot ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: fglrx 2:8.970-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-19.30-generic 3.5.7 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-19-generic x86_64 .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu7 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,composite,opengl,compiztoolbox,decor,vpswitch,snap,mousepoll,resize,place,move,wall,grid,regex,imgpng,session,gnomecompat,animation,fade,unitymtgrabhandles,workarounds,scale,expo,ezoom,unityshell,dbus] CompositorRunning: compiz DKMSKernelVersion: 3.5.0-19-generic Date: Sat Dec 1 06:25:22 2012 DistUpgraded: 2012-12-01 05:15:11,982 DEBUG enabling apt cron job DistroCodename: quantal DistroVariant: ubuntu DkmsStatus: fglrx, 8.970: added GraphicsCard: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV710 [Radeon HD 4350] [1002:954f] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: PC Partner Limited Device [174b:e990] InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-11-14 (17 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release amd64 (20120817.1) MachineType: System manufacturer P5QL PRO MarkForUpload: True PackageVersion: (not installed) ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-19-generic root=UUID=5340a8dd-5c8d-4794-8292-c33bfe013461 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 SourcePackage: fglrx-installer Title: fglrx (not installed): fglrx kernel module failed to build UnitySupportTest: Error: command ['/usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test', '-p', '-f'] failed with exit code 1: X Error of failed request: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 154 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GLXCreateContext) Serial number of failed request: 25 Current serial number in output stream: 26 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to quantal on 2012-12-01 (0 days ago) dmi.bios.date: 03/12/2009 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 1001 dmi.board.asset.tag: To Be Filled By O.E.M. dmi.board.name: P5QL PRO dmi.board.vendor: ASUSTeK Computer INC. dmi.board.version: Rev 1.xx dmi.chassis.asset.tag: Asset-1234567890 dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: Chassis Manufacture dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr1001:bd03/12/2009:svnSystemmanufacturer:pnP5QLPRO:pvrSystemVersion:rvnASUSTeKComputerINC.:rnP5QLPRO:rvrRev1.xx:cvnChassisManufacture:ct3:cvrChassisVersion: dmi.product.name: P5QL PRO dmi.product.version: System Version dmi.sys.vendor: System manufacturer version.compiz: compiz 1:0.9.8.4+bzr3412-0ubuntu0.1 version.ia32-libs: ia32-libs 20090808ubuntu36 version.libdrm2: libdrm2 2.4.39-0ubuntu1 version.libgl1-mesa-dri: libgl1-mesa-dri 9.0-0ubuntu1 version.libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental: libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental N/A version.libgl1-mesa-glx: libgl1-mesa-glx 9.0-0ubuntu1 version.xserver-xorg-core: xserver-xorg-core 2:1.13.0-0ubuntu6.1 version.xserver-xorg-input-evdev: xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.7.3-0ubuntu2 version.xserver-xorg-video-ati: xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:6.99.99~git20120913.8637f772-0ubuntu1 version.xserver-xorg-video-intel: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.20.9-0ubuntu2 version.xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.2-0ubuntu3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1085385/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
