Fedora Installation :: ATI Catalyst Error "./default_policy.sh Does Not Support Version"
Jul 19, 2011
I have read all the HOW TO's on the forum but don't have find this error: ATI Technologies Linux Driver Installer/Packager which: no XFree86 in (/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/home/tb/bin)
Error: ./default_policy.sh does not support version default:v2:x86_64:lib::none:2.6.38.8-35.fc15.x86_64; make sure that the version is being correctly set by --iscurrentdistro Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install.yUVIkk
it's the catalyst for Radeon X700 downloaded directly from the official site of ATI. I have find on the HOW O's that the card older than the HD - series were not supported but why I can download this catalyst for the X700 on the official site if it isn't supperted? Here is also the lspci:
I just upgraded from Lucid to Maverick and I absolutely cannot get the proprietary fglrx driver to install. I've downloaded the binaries from ATI and they fail to install with a message that says:
Code: Error: ./default_policy.sh does not support version default:v2:i686:lib::none:2.6.35-22-generic:; make sure that the version is being correctly set by --iscurrentdistro Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install.Dtv3Sn I tried installing the drivers from the System>Administration>Additional Drivers and it fails with
SystemError: installArchives() failed Based on what little I could find I guess the newest version of Xorg broke the ATI drivers. Is this true and is there absolutely no way to use the proprietary drivers? I'm a World of Warcraft nerd and the fglrx drivers are the only ones that work for me
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've been searching for an hour or so and can't seem to find a concrete answer. My endgame is having Ubuntu successfully installed (either 9.10 or 10.04) with a fully working Ati 4870x2. I desperately need some help on finding the proper configuration of OS version and driver version. I installed 10.04 with the 10.3 driver package from ATI's site and it was a no go - I had nothing but problems.
I would like to have full 3d acceleration so I can play some games through Wine. This is a powerful card - I know ATI doesn't have a great reputation in the Linux world but I really hope there is a driver version I can install to get some good results.The rest of my specs are in my signature I need to install 64 bit Ubuntu to make use all of the system and video ram.
I have been trying to figure out if Eyefinity will work in Ubuntu 10.04 for three monitors. I can test this at work where we have three monitor, one with a display port connection. I just want to know if it is worth trying, and if so what catalyst drive might work.
So I have done a lot of searching and have found a number of yes and no answers.
To start with Lanchpad has a change log saying it should work.

This guy says it work once did but does not now.
[url]
Then someone tries and fails with Catalyst 10.6. Seem like a lot of other good info here.
[url]
Then to finish it up these guys have some rumors that seem to say Catalyst 10.7 will support this.

I think I will wait for Catalyst 10.7 and then give it a try.
Trying to launch Second Life gives the following error message:

This problem was easily found using search with solutions for Fedora 11.
The following information has been found for adding the 32 bit support to Fedora 11 but it does not work in Fedora 12.
The file created in the instructions below is a list of the 32 bit libraries. It is then called as input to yum to simply install them.
"Add the Libraries Next, add the 32-bit libraries by copying the following list, and pasting it into a text file. Save it as �Fedora-ia32.txt�."
Another post says that was all unnecessary as the following commands would do the same thing.
Could have simply been achieved by calling:$ yum install SDL.i586...(Or by selecting SDL.i586 in add/remove programs.)
The problem I have with Fedora 12 are neither of these will install anything in Fedora 12. Looking at add/remove programs does not yield anthing that looks like it is 32 bit support when searching with the argument "SDL".
Does anyone know how to install 32 bit support into Fedora 12 64 bit version ? I like the simple yum expression rather than long lists like the first example uses, but I'll try anything if it works.
A side question to this entire experiment is what chance would you give to Second Life being able to be run remotely using VNC? I would think if it runes on the Linux machine, using a remote terminal would have little impact. Using VNC isn't the usual way this will be run, I just wonder if it would work at all.
In FC11 i686, I notice that after yum install xsane xsane -v reports a version of xsane that is compiled without Gimp support. Is there a special name for the xsane package that does have Gimp support?
I had an earlier thread with wrong title and wasn't sure of the problem at the time. Now I have some details after checking all the threads about catalyst so posting a new thread. The problem: In korganizer (or To-Do list in kontact), whenever double-clicking or right-click->Edit.. a To-Do item in the summary list window, it crashes Xorg.
[Code]...
Fatal server error: Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting I think it has something to do with the amd/ati catalyst driver and korganizer. My video card is XFX Radeon HD5670. I have Fedora 14 x86_64 latest update with xorg 1.9.1-3. I tried catalyst 10.9, 10.10, 10.11, and kernel 2.6.35.6-45.fc14.x86_64, 2.6.35.6-48.fc14.x86_64, 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.x86_64. Same problem.
If I use vesa driver, or from another PC with proprietary nvidia driver, no problem. Open source radeon driver works ok but sometimes the display turns off and I can't get back the display. And I need 3D. I scoured through the forum and followed the instructions exactly:
will going from 10.04 desktop to 10.10 netbook mean i have to reinstall everything? also, does the netbook version support mounting of networked drives?
AFAICT, F14 does not have any formal support right now (no rpms, etc), and there are some pitfalls to using the ATI installer which I am sure have resulted in system re-installs, unhappy faces, and people stuck without a proper driver. This is because while the installer seems easy to use, it's unfriendly in so far as it does not check for pre-requisite software first, and when it craps outs, it doesn't tell you anything is wrong, but it will leave your system without a functioning X server. The first time I ran it, the GUI installer told me everything was complete and that all I needed to do was reboot! When I did, X would not work, and reinstalling the original xorg-ati driver, etc, did not fix it.....
Have a fresh install of FC14, 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.i686.PAE. After trying the Catalyst install instruction the response is this - Requires: kernel-uname-r = 2.6.35.12-88.fc14.i686.PAEInstalled: kernel-PAE-2.6.35.11-83.fc14.i686 (@updates)I do 'yum update kernel' and I appear to have the latest release.
I have an ATI Radeon 6450 (*cough*shitty*cough*). Everything runs fine, but the graphics freeze up occasionally. I haven't installed anything/changed any files.
I have a fedora 11 with kernel package: kernel-PAE-2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11.i686
I would like to install the devel package for this kernel version, but I can't find it, because in the fedora repo there is only the original kernel (2.6.29.4....) and in the updates repo there is only the newest kernel package (2.6.30....)
Where can I find the packages which are between the fedora and update repos' versions?
i find it refreshing to give things a clean start when new kernels arrive... the net install is very satisfying...except when sad things happen with new kernels... let's talk about 2.6.30.9-90 2.6.30.8-64 was a solid and reliable kernel... with hardly a bug...things were working smoothly...... with the latest and greatest 30.9-90 we find that ATI's Catalyst Control ( amdcccle ) fails to run...
I think the pc updated, or at least that is the only thing I can figure. Anyhow, pc froze so I reboot system. I have dual setup, after choosing Ubuntu, I receive GNU GRUB version 1.97~Beta 4 error. I am also told to press TAB for further commands, but none of the commands seem to do anything.
How to install or enable freetype support in php version 5.2.2. I already installed gd support in php. I using RHEL4. I not able reinstall or recompile in my server.

I am trying to implement a chroot directory for a group of sftp users who all manage a shared directory. The relevant portion of my sshd_config file is below:
[Code].....
this is the latest yum reports as available. according to the error is would seem both 'Match' and 'ForceCommand' statements are not supported in this version of ssh? Do I have any options aside from installing from tarball from openssh.org? If I do that would that mean I could not use yum to maintain ssh on my system anymore? Not sure what to do, I have to chroot this group of users, I can't just chroot at the global config level because I need to still be able to ssh as my admin user to this box to administer it. I need the chroot'ing only for sftp purposes.
We will be installing some ibm software on our 2 Quad Core Intel server and ibm lists the OS requirements as RHEL 5 Advanced Platform Update 3 but we have the licenses for RHEL 5.3 (non AP). The question is, since we are not planning for any type of virtualisation and will have a single instance of OS installation, is there any reason (OS level) for the products being not supported on base version?
(I am also checking with IBM but would also appreciate some input from Red Hat as well) In other words, are there any hard dependencies or differences between AP and base versions other than virtualisation support?I just read that base version support only up to 2 CPUs. Does this include the Cores or it is just physical CPU sockets number (i.e will 2 CPUs with 4 core each still be supported).
I am a newby in linux. i wanted to install lampp (xampp) but it gaves me an error that the operating system doesn't support 32 bit. I am using at this moment Fedora 12 x86_64.
I looked in another thread and they sad that i need to run yum whatprovides missing_lib_name but it don't show anything is there another way to get 32 bit support in linux because i really need xampp.
I have the HD4850 and, I wanted to know if it is possible to use the CLI to see which version of OpenGL is the latest version I can use according to my driver. If it's not possible via the CLI then, what's the next best way? (I can't find a website for the radeon driver listing the latest OpenGL support per supported card).
My external USB drive came formatted NTFS. It had a list of compatible OSs on the back of the box.Debian was not listed. I reformatted it during installation never planning to use it for NT. My BIOS just happens to be Phoenix. I have everything up and running fine. I just have to remember not to forget the startup sequence in order to avoid a permanent non-transitory Grub Stage1.5 Error 21. I don't want others to have to clean Grub or start over if it's unnecessary and there is a work around as simple as a startup sequence. Nor am I pointing the finger at Phoenix.
My external USB drive has its own separate DC power supply apparently needing more power than a thumb drive or what it could pull from a USB port. Here's a picture:

I'm currently an user of OpenSuse, newer version of Suse don't support some of the hardware that I use and previous version of Suse will cease to have support in a few months. So I'm considering other versions of Linux and Ubuntu comes to mind. So I like to know if Ubuntu (Desktop 32 bits) supports this devices:
