I have acer laptop with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 graphics card. I have downloaded ATI Radeon 5xxx driver from ati official site. When I ran it using the command below, it gives me the following error
command:
Error:

I've been on numerous websites--with tutorials telling how to install the ATI drivers, I'm running Squeeze 6.0.1 Gnome amd64, the tutorial I am using is located at the ATIProprietary Debian Wiki [URL] when I try the following:
sudo apt-get install fakeroot debhelper build-essential libstdc++5
I get this:
Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
Package fakeroot is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source.

I have a feeling that apt-get is not searching the web, yet searching a CD perhaps? Because when I've tried the apt-get update, I get the following:
Ign cdrom://[Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.0 _Squeeze_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20110324-08:54] squeeze Release.gpg
Media change: please insert the disc labeled
'Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.0 _Squeeze_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20110324-08:54'
in the drive '/media/cdrom/' and press enter
After doing that, nothing happens, and my apt-get still doesn't work, everything I try and install like build-essential says it's not found. Also when I
su
nano /ect/apt/sources.lst
the list in nano is empty???
I'm currently running a dual boot with windows xp/debian but as soon as I can get everything working, I'm going to turn this into a full linux system. Also my sound doesn't work, but my sound is HD sound that goes via the video card, I have it hooked up HDMI to my LG tv/monitor, sound works fine on xp. I think once I get the video card drivers installed it should possibly fix my sound issues at the same time.
installing ATI Mobility Radeon x1400 driver on 9.10?
View 9 Replies View RelatedAfter installing OpenSuse 11.3x86_64 specifically for the ATI radeon HD 4850 proprietary driver that was created with intended compatibility from ATI, I have intense screen tearing.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe relevant details of my setup are:
Samsung R522 laptop
Realtek RTL8192E wireless network controller (PCI)
Fedora 12, kernel 2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686 (automatically updated using software update)
My problem is that my wireless card has never worked - basically there aren't any widely available linux drivers, and there are many threads on getting the RTL8192E to work on many different forums, e.g. here, but none specifically for Fedora, so I think that this thread could potentially guide many more users. FYI, my hardwired network connection works perfectly.
Fantastically however, by emailing Realtek support, they'll send you their Linux driver, which most people have claimed works perfectly (although why they haven't just put it on their website is beyond me). SO, I've got a Linux driver for my wireless card. When Realtek emailed me to send me the driver, they said to just 'cd' into the driver directory, then do
su
make clean
make
make install
reboot
./wlan0up or ./wlan1up
OK, so I tried to do this and get the following error:
make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** [all] Error 2
I don't know enough about linux to understand this error. I really don't want to have to recompile my kernel, and I hope there is some way to install this driver with not too much hassle. How to overcome this error, and install my wireless driver so I can get wireless network access on my Fedora 12 operating system. I've found Fedora 12 really easy to use so far, but this is proving quite hard!
This is the output of 'ls -lh' in the folder which seems to be causing the error, namely /lib/modules/2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686/

I'm having an issue and I'm trying to figure out if the proprietary driver from ATI is actually getting installed correctly or if I'm on the open source driver still. ...and whether or not there's an advantage to one over the other...
I'm on a Sager NP3790 with an ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 graphics card. I've got a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10 and the basic 2d functions all seem fine, but any games I try to run with OpenGL simplt fail and "glxinfo" yields:

I have downloaded the latest legacy driver from ATI (ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run) and I've not had any success running that directly. It appears to not knowingly support anything newer than Ubuntu 9.04. I have tried forcing that driver to build itself targeting 9.04 and I've tried installing the .deb packages that it produces, but with no luck there either.
If I recall this laptop's former lives, it has in the past run Eternal Lands without issue back when it was Ubuntu 8.x, but somewhere between a client update from them, some update from ATI or Ubuntu I seem to have lost my OpenGL capabilities.
i upgraded my System from Fedora 11 to Fedora 13. My graphics driver crashed (graphics-card: radeon hd-4-series) and i couldn't even start. I managed to reset the driver and now Fedora ist booting again, but it isn't working properly:
Code:
And every time is boot, i get this boot-message:
Code:
I installed CentOS 5.5 64-bit version. After (and during) the installation my graphic card couldn't be recognized. The resolution was way below the native (1920*1080), windows moved pretty slowly and scrolling was even slower.I updated the system - didn't solve the problem. After the update I tried to select the 'radeon' driver from Administration->Display, but after the restart the X server crashed and recovered to the previous configuration (vesa). I tried to install the official AMD Catalyst driver, and after the restart the native resolution was detected, but the interface begun to work even slower (very difficult to move windows and scroll text). The Catalyst control panel couldn't be opened as well.

View 7 Replies View RelatedYesterday I updated my F15 x86_64 system from kernel 2.6.38.6-27 to 2.6.38.8-35. After the reboot, my triple-head system complained of not having enough CRTCs and only 2 screens worked. Other components were also updated, including some X11 components, however selecting a fallback kernel at the grub prompt indicates this follows the kernel (fall back to old kernel has all 3 monitors working). xrandr --verbose on the 2.6.38.6-27 kernel shows each of the 3 monitors assigned to separate CRTC entries, with CRTCs 0 thru 5 available.
Same command on the new 2.6.38.8-35 system only shows CRTCs 0 & 1 available. My system using an XFX Radeon HD5450 card, with 3 interfaces: HDMI, DVI, VGA. The default Fedora open source "radeon" driver allows all 3 interfaces to be usable. However, with the new kernel, the loss of several CRTCs prevents the 3rd monitor from working.What are the thoughts from the community? I've searched various forums here and haven't seen similar symptoms reported. I'm looking for any direction/experience/thingsToTry from others before trying to open a bug report. (Attempts to use the Catalyst driver several months ago resulted in only 2 of the 3 connected monitors working.
I have been trying to install the FGLRX driver for a Radeon HD 4850. According to this page and others on the web, it says that Xorg 7.5 isn't supported by the driver. I was just wondering is it possible to install Xorg 7.4 on Fedora 12, if not what release of Fedora should I use (i.e does Fedora 11 support Xorg 7.4?)

I am trying to reinstall ATI propietary graphics driver fglrx on Xorg 1.10.0.901, but it always fails with (something similar to): Code: ./default_policy.sh does not support version default:v2:x86_64:lib32:none:[my kernel] make sure that version is correctly set by --iscurrentdistro
I am not sure what is it trying to tell me, neither I don't know why lib32 is in the list. (It's 64bit Gentoo system). It used to work in past, but now I can't start X at all. Using my already installed driver produces Segmentation fault, X without any configuration stops on no devices found.
EDIT: Alright, I just discovered that fglrx driver does not support higher versions of X.org than 7.6, and I have 1.10.0.901 version installed. EDIT2: Actually, later I found out that my Xorg is supported by that driver, so I think it was the mess in packages&Xorg configuration which caused it. Nevermind...

I revived my old desktop (failed psu), and installed debian squeeze using netinst. It has a nvidia geForce 7600GT card. The driver in squeeze does not work very well, so I downloaded nvidia driver-installer. When I run it, it comes back with an error saying the kernel (I assume the nvidia graphics kernel) is compiled with gcc4.3, but the system is using gcc4.4. Using synaptic manager, I installed gcc3.3, but same error.
Next I tried to uninstall gcc4.4 and it gave a warning the system might not be usable. I did not understand it, but I went ahead and uninstalled gcc4.4 and guess what, the system is not usable, and I have to re-install squeeze. Not a big loss, since I do not have much in it. How to install this nvidia driver, specifically, how do I get switch to gcc4.3 from gcc4.3? Also, the squeeze install gave me 2.6.33-trunk-amd64, and 2.6.33-3-amd64. How do I get rid of ...trunk-amd64? Do I just delete it from grub?

I replaced an ATI Radeon 9550 with a Radeon X1300/X1550, in hopes of better performance.
My System: P4@3GHz, 1.5Gb RAM, Fedora 12, kernel 2.6.32.10-90.fc12.
Faults: Screen refresh is extremely low. Glxgears outputs 25 FPS. Dragging windows around is sometimes really slow.
What I did so far, in hope of fixing it:
1. Installed 'system-config-display', for providing an xorg.conf
2. Did: yum --enablerepo=rawhide update mesa-dri-drivers-experimental mesa*, fixing this, but to no avail...
I cannot find any errors in the log...I don't know what to do...
I am posting my Xorg.conf, Xorg.0.log and Glxinfo through links to pastebin.com
POST UPDATE:
When running GlxGears, I get a bit of motion, and then the gears freeze for 1 second. And this goes on and on. But...if I move the mouse around, I get 1100FPS!
Now I messed a bit with xorg.conf and the "SWCursor" Option, but the above happens when this option is on "true". On "false" there is no 1100FPS, only the freezing loop...
I am relatively new to linux and am running into a problem. I just got a new laptop and need to configure/install it's wireless driver but am getting an error when running "make". The error is: make[1]: Entering directory `/lib/modules/2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop/build' make[1]: *** No rule to make target `modules'. Stop.
I have scoured these forums and know that others have the same issue (when configuring other drivers/programs). I am sorry if this post is redundant. It sounds like the Makefile is pointing to the wrong directory. I am using opensuse 11.4, have make and gcc installed. My kernel is linux-2.6.37.1-1.2 (I just re-installed the desktop kernel to make sure it was up to date). The driver I am trying to install is located here: AUR (en) - rtl8192ce.
Another forum suggests pointing somewhere in the /usr/src/linux-2.6.37.1-1.2 directory instead. Is this correct? Should I be pointing to a folder within this? I am not a programmer but any description about what I am actually putting in this directory and why would be awesome (so I can learn a bit more). Or just helping me solve the problem would be great too.
