Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1059655] Re: 1002:94a3 fglrx doesn't support ATI FirePro M7740 chip
After purging the old PPA, and setting up Nick Andrick's PPA, I tried installing the fglrx-installer package. However, no such package was available. So I guessed and installed the fglrx package. The installation went smoothly, but upon rebooting my system, I don't think Nick's package's driver is in effect. I have no AMD Unsupported hardware watermark on my screen, and the output from running glxinfo suggests I have no OpenGL functionality. Next, I uninstalled the fglrx package, and installed fglrx-updates, version 2:9.010-0ubuntu1~andrik5. Upon rebooting, I had the same experience as I got with the fglrx package, as described above.

I don't presently have Precise installed, but I'm near 100% that the installer did NOT work under Precise. When I used the official Ubuntu GUI for closed-source drivers, I would be told the installation failed, although no reason was given to me. When I used the AMD-provided installer scripts, IIRC the later versions of those scripts installed, but then when I ran aticonfig --initial I was told that no supported cards were detected. In fact, I'm currently running the driver provided by the fglrx-legacy package in someone's PPA, and while accelerated video is working (glxinfo produces copious, happy output), I have the AMD Unsupported hardware watermark in the bottom-left corner of my screen.

I believe that's correct: the *current* version of fglrx doesn't support ATI FirePro M7740 chip. Unfortunately, it's only the current version that's compatible with the version of X that ships with Ubuntu 12.10. -- 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/1059655 Title: 1002:94a3 fglrx doesn't support ATI FirePro M7740 chip To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1059655/+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

Christian Convey, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. Regarding your comments https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1059655/comments/3 : I believe that's correct: the *current* version of fglrx doesn't support ATI FirePro M7740 chip. Unfortunately, it's only the current version that's compatible with the version of X that ships with Ubuntu 12.10. Neither the available prior upstream driver releases notes from http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/previous/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx , or the current stable/beta from http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/AMDCatalystSoftwareSuiteVersion129ReleaseNotes.aspx mention FirePro M7740. As well, if one goes to http://support.amd.com/US/Pages/AMDSupportHub.aspx and clicks - Notebook Graphics - Mobility FirePro Series - Dell Precision M6500 (FirePro M7740 Mobility), one will notice under Operating System: how linux is not an option. However, if one chooses Notebook Graphics - Radeon HD Series - Radeon 6310 - Operating System: notice Linux x86 is an option. Hence, it appears AMD currently does not, nor has ever provided a linux driver for your model line.

It is advised to use their E-Mail webform ( http://emailcustomercare.amd.com/ ) as you will get a ticket number E-Mailed to you regarding your issue (I know, I recently submitted one). :) If you do submit a ticket, please share your results.

Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1059655] Re: 1002:94a3 fglrx doesn't support ATI FirePro M7740 chip
This is because ATI was not good about covering laptop-vendor-specific chips in their driver documentation. Consulting historical documents from AMD/ATI will not help you as much as one would hope.
