I also wish to comment that I found it very confusing to hear "make sure you're using 8-11 from intrepid-proposed" when the version number for the ubutnu package is 8.552-0 and reported by the video driver in /var/log/Xorg.0.log is 8.55.2 > (II) ATI Proprietary Linux Driver Version Identifier:8.55.2 > (II) ATI Proprietary Linux Driver Release Identifier: UNSUPPORTED-8.552 > > (II) ATI Proprietary Linux Driver Build Date: Oct 28 2008 21:22:33 I attempted both "http://archive.ubuntu.com intrepid-proposed/restricted xorg-driver-fglrx 2:8.552-0ubuntu0.1" and also "ati-driver- installer-8-11-x86.x86_64.run" (dated Nov 12 2008) which I found at http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon.html . The version number reported by this *.run package is also v8.552 For what it's worth, I attempted to use the 'ati' video driver wrapper after installing each version of the proprietary driver, and the 'ati' video driver wrapper correctly used the 'radeon' driver instead of the unfunctional 'fglrx' driver, so we got that part right. I had to set "Driver fglrx" in the "Section Device" area of /etc/X11/xorg.conf to force it to attempt using the fglrx driver. -- r3xx Hardware does not work with fglrx [EPR#257839] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/284408 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
