[Bug 93861] Re: modprobe fglrx fails
Well, I have nearly the same problem. Today I updated to 7.04 and everything worked fine. The restricted driver manager told me I use an ati card and glxgears worked smooth. Then I made an update with synaptics and now the fglrxinfo output looks like described here. In my case the problem is that with the update the kernel was upgraded too (2.6.20-12-386 to 2.6.20-13-386)... ...but for the new kernel there is no restricted modules package - [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig Abhängigkeitsbaum wird aufgebaut Reading state information... Fertig Paket linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-13-386 ist nicht verfügbar, wird aber von einem anderen Paket referenziert. Das kann heißen, dass das Paket fehlt, dass es veraltet ist oder nur aus einer anderen Quelle verfügbar ist. E: Paket linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-13-386 hat keinen Installationskandidaten - I think the problem occures because the package is not yet on the german mirror and will be fixed if I wait until it becomes available...

[Bug 93861] Re: modprobe fglrx fails
Hello, i believe this problem may have been rejected too soon first of all, the kernel version i had was due to the installation of xen. but, the bug here occurred much before i ever installed xen, that is with the kernel version 2.6.20. to support that, i am now on a fresh install of feisty beta. i just validated and my kernel is 2.6.20.: $ dpkg -l '*2.6.19*' No packages found matching *2.6.19*.

[Bug 93861] Re: modprobe fglrx fails
well well, here comes some news, This could be a minor bug, since non experts could really have trouble over this, but after doing an apt-get update as well as refreshing the install sources (didn't add or remove any), i could now install the driver. the driver is now working fine, $ fglrxinfo display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. OpenGL renderer string: Radeon X1300/X1550 Series OpenGL version string: 2.0.6334 (8.34.8) the only exception, and this i dont know if it is a bug, the highest available resolution was 1024x780. I did add my resolution in xorg.conf, but again, newbies might have a hard time with this. in any case, the beta seems to have fixed it. thanks for your help and great job for ubuntu :) -- modprobe fglrx fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/93861 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm the same problem on today's daily-live (7.04 Beta?) and a ATI Radeon X1300 card. $ sudo modprobe --ignore-install fglrx FATAL: Module fglrx not found. $ sudo restricted-manager modinfo: could not open /lib/modules/2.6.20-12-generic/volatile/fglrx.ko: No such file or directory $ dpkg -L linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-12-generic |grep fglrx /lib/linux-restricted-modules/2.6.20-12-generic/fglrx /lib/linux-restricted-modules/2.6.20-12-generic/fglrx/firegl_public.o /lib/linux-restricted-modules/2.6.20-12-generic/fglrx/libfglrx_ip.a.GCC4 /lib/linux-restricted-modules/2.6.20-12-generic/fglrx/fglrx.mod.o Shouldn't there be a fglrx.ko somewhere? -- modprobe fglrx fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/93861 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 93861] Re: modprobe fglrx fails
I wonder if it's the same problem as in bug #57716, where AFAICS lrm- manager does not build fglrx.ko because it's disabled in /etc/default /linux-restricted-modules-common ? From booting the CD in qemu (I can not test the real system with the ATI card right now) I see that /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common has fglrx (and nv) disabled. -- modprobe fglrx fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/93861 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Tormod, it definitively does not work on the live CD, but for a different reason, see bug 94359.

[Bug 93861] Re: modprobe fglrx fails
Well, I just tried and it worked! I only had to edit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common I did this on the live cd by booting with break=bottom. I could then use the Restricted Modules Manager and enable fglrx. After restarting gdm it worked perfectly. -- modprobe fglrx fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/93861 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 93861] Re: modprobe fglrx fails
For some reason you are booting an older 2.6.19 kernel instead of 2.6.20. You should also make sure you have installed linux-restricted- modules-generic (if you use the -generic kernel). -- modprobe fglrx fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/93861 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Tormod, thanks for your help! i must admit im rather new to linux, i recently converted from windows to ubuntu. This OS is really amazing. i used to have edgy, but some of my hardware was not supported, so i did an early jump to feisty. The setup i have now is the default one installed by the ubuntu feisty alternate install CD. i have no idea why i am using a wrong kernel version. could you help me find out how i can boot with the new kernel version? thanks!! -- modprobe fglrx fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/93861 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 93861] Re: modprobe fglrx fails
You can remove the old 2.6.19 kernels: sudo apt-get remove --purge linux-image-2.6.19* Check for other 2.6.19 leftovers that you can remove as well: dpkg -l '*2.6.19*' Or maybe you would like to try installing from scratch with a recent CD?
