This worked for me on a configuration with fglrx installed: 1.Download the current ATI driver here: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx 2. Build the driver in terminal and download directory with: sh ati-driver-installer-11-9-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg 3. Remove the installed fglrx: sudo apt-get purge fglrx fglrx-amdcccle 4. Install the new driver packages by double clicking on the before built debs. 5. Make sure that the driver is installed: dpkg -l fglrx* 6. Restart 7. Check with: fglrxinfo
Normally it is recommended to execute but I did not do: sudo aticonfig --initial This writes the xorg configuration If you wish to change back to the normal fglrx: sudo apt-get purge fglrx fglrx-amdcccle sudo apt-get install fglrx fglrx-amdcccle -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/838577 Title: GNOME Shell display problems with FGLRX To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/fglrx/+bug/838577/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
