[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1068661] Re: Unity does not load after installing fglrx/fglrx-updates in ATI/Radeon + Intel GPU hybrid systems
Hi Nick, I just tried your PPA on a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.10 and the same thing happened in the end. I reboot into low graphics mode, where i am not even able to choose from one of the choices but am immediately thrown into a command line log in. There i am able to login and execute commands but not able to start X or anything. As said i have a intel hd3000 combined with radeon hd 6490m. I followed your instructions on http://askubuntu.com/a/207270/7287.

Hi Nick, yes I am using Ubuntu and will try the packages later today when I'm home again. Will let you know of the progress.

Hi Nick, i was trying to make a clear path for myself on how to approach this from what you've found out and I can't get my head around it somehow. Could you possibly summarize how people can now try to use the PPA you provide and/or what is missing in order to properly configure the proprietary fglrx drivers (either fglrx or fglrx-updates or the fglrx in your PPA; with our without the intel package from your PPA). Also from the note of Chris WIllson that he wrote the fault lies not with the intel driver but the fglrx and their failure to support the newer X.org stack, would a newer fglrx drive (amd catalyst 12 or higher) be advised to wait for?

Hi @jacobbrett, do you have a single AMD/ATI Card (in this case the Radeon HD 6870) or is it coupled with a integrated Intel card? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1068661 Title: 1002:6740 Unity does not load after installing fglrx-installer Radeon HD 6700M Series To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/fglrx/+bug/1068661/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

@Kamsetti the solution for you card and other now (AMD categorised) legacy cards Radeon HD 2 - 4 is found in this Blog. http://www.ubuntuvibes.com/2012/10/how-to-install-amd-catalyst- legacy.html Im affraid you wont be able to do better than that with the open source drivers, since they still suffer from both cards working at the same time. And this causes the computer to overheat and fan to run wild.

Hi! Don't want to disappointing anyone but the solution provided by @pads doesn't work for everyone. 1) the solution for legacy cards (2xxx-4xxx) does indeed work 2) but the second solution only works for users with only a AMD/ATI GPU. Anyone who has a ATI/Intel hybrid card can only use the open source drivers. The ATI/Intel Hybrids still seem to suffer from a regression compared to Ubuntu 12.04 and the previous AMD Catalyst drivers. I have just tried the AMD Catalyst 12.11 beta driver fresh out the press at AMD and it still doesen't work for me. I have a AMD Radeon HD 6490M with an integrated Intel 3000 HD card running. Laptop is Samsung Chronos 7 700z3a-S03-DE. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1068661 Title: 1002:6740 Unity does not load after installing fglrx-installer Radeon HD 6700M Series To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/fglrx/+bug/1068661/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
