lspci has this to say about it: 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV730 [FirePro V5700]
The balance of evidence regarding the FirePro V5700 seems to be support was dropped in 8.982, and the AMD website is just getting it wrong when it offers 8.982.x for the FirePro V5700 in some combinations of clicking through the driver selector forms. The balance of evidence regarding the FireStream cards seems confused. The PDF release notes linked from individual driver versions at http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/fire/previous/Pages/fire_linux.aspx suggest support dropped, whilst http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/AMDCatalystSoftwareSuiteVersion1211BetaReleaseNotes.aspx is contradictory to this, suggesting support continues. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1058040 Title: fglrx-installer not working with AMD Radeon/Mobility Radeon HD 2000-4000 cards in Quantal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/1058040/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
