similar to: ATI fglrx patch, OpenGL is working

And does it work ok? any special use cases or installation issues? I'm thinking of a 64 bit installation with an RV530 chipset. Dave -- Canada must refuse to be entangled in any more wars fought to make the world safe for capitalism. -- The Regina Manifesto, 1933

Hi, I had posted the following issue a few days ago in Xen-users but I haven''t received any answer yet. So I decided to re-post it here in hope for some solution. Here''s the original post: Xen wiki states that using linux 3.0 and above as dom0 works with all graphics cards. I could install the fglrx graphics driver on my desktop machine with a discrete graphics card (Radeon

A call for those ati-experimented wine gamers, which version would be the best for wine? I'm currently using ubuntu 10.10 default for them (catalyst 10.10 too), but perfomance is so low...I know ATI is not in love with wine, but at least I want to test the best posibility out there. My card is a hd 5470 mobility, help is appreciated.

Hi, While running Spore (steam version) on 1.1.42 with a GeForce 8600GT on Arch Linux x86-64, everything worked fine except for occasional DxDllReg.exe crashes. I have since replaced the card with an ATi Radeon HD4800 and the user interface now unbearably flickers, garbles (inflated bits of text and other UI elements appearing randomly) and generally looks far from correct (to the point where I

Longtime lurker and user of wine, but I'm about to replace my old nvidia card with a newer model and seeing as Ati is open sourcing their drivers. I was wondering if I should get a 4800 card, but only if the fglrx or x86-radeon driver is up to the task :) Like can it run direct3d 9 games like Eve? How about 2d performance in games like fallout 2 and planescape torment?

...as it was called on Phoronix forums. After this (http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=2066) discussion, I have decided to give the ATI/AMD fglrx drivers another go... and immediately remembered why I gave them up in the first place. That was version 8.5. Now, two versions after (yes, I've overslept a whole release, and I feel fascinatingly relaxed after that), the problem persists.

Hello everyone. I seem to have a bit of a problem running some 3D accelerated games under wine, while using the open-source ATI Radeon driver. My graphics card is Radeon 9700, and the open-source drivers overall work much better than the proprietary fglrx. The fglrx driver allows me (in most cases) to run games like Temple of Elemental Evil (particularily) or Morrowind normally, but I can't

A user running gnome came in this morning, clicked on the application menu... and it was much shorter than he expected. He could get to firefox, and googled about refreshing that... and found something that told him to reboot. And that's it: I cannot get X up, at all. I just get the "oh, no, something failed, please log out and try again". Fully updated CentOS 7, [AMD/ATI] Oland

Hi again. I've got a laptop with an ATI X600 inside, perfectly working xorg with dual head configuration, 2 desktops (without xinerama). I've got 2 xorg.conf files, one for propietary ATI (fglrx) driver, and other to use the open source driver. The difference is very notorious. The problem I have is that I read (Saint Google) that to work with compiz/beryl and dual-head configuration, I

Hi all! I recently got an ATI Radeon HD 3850 card and now noticed that with the fglrx driver many games that look well in AppDB do not run properly on this hardware (Supreme Commander ingame: flickering static garbage, Prince of Persia SoT has several issues that completely garble ingame graphics). Older games (not using shaders among other things) seem to run fine - need to do more testing

Hi there, I''ve been trying to find out why my X server is not working with xen and my ati radeon driver, this is what I''ve got uname -a Linux netwarrior 3.2.4-debian #1 SMP Sun Mar 11 22:50:18 ART 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux xorg.conf Driver "fglrx" grub config menuentry ''Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 3.2.4 Debian'' --class debian --class gnu-linux

Hi, I want to configure X on a NEC PC with an ATI graphic card. Usually, I do that by hand, e. g.: # init 3 # X -configure --> first draft # mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11 Then I edit this with Vi, step by step. Usually, this works, but not for ATI cards. Here, the first draft only gives me a "vesa" driver... though xorg-x11-drv-ati is installed. But then, when I replace Driver

Still trying to get it running. Updated CentOS 7, ATI video card, trying to use the radeon driver, and, using the previous kernel, X appears to come up, but gdm fails; with the 514 kernel, X fails to start. And here's a twist: I just rebooted, with radeon.modeset=1 on the kernel line... and for no reason I know of, I get *six* logs, Xorg.[0-5].log. Does this suggest anything to anyone? I

Hi all, Here is a strange problem. I have recently installed the latest ATI fglrx driver (version 9.3). Everything appears to be fine, except glxgears only works for the root user. It turns out I was missing the DRI section in my xorg.conf. Once I added it I can run glxgears with no problem. But now I notice my wine games always crashes the computer (black screen with total lock up, needed to

Well, I got my user back to being able to use his system, but I've still got one issue: it's running on the VESA driver - there is *no* Catalyst build for this monitor, for CentOS 7. From a lot of googling, nothing's been done since the summer of '14 (lspci reports it as a FirePro V3900). Any thoughts, or pointers, as to if/how I can get X - he's running KDE - to see the full

User got upgraded to 6.4. Graphical mode video fails. It's an AMD (nee ATI) RV620 (FirePro 2260). So I finished upgrading everything, including kmod-fglrx. Based on the xorg.conf's on there, it's been using the fglrx. Now, in Xorg.0.log, it tells me "no supported AMD display adapters were found". I've been on-and-off googling for hours, and can't figure out if the

Hi, I'm currently installing CentOS 7 on a client's Dell Inspiron laptop. Here's the video card: # lspci | grep -i vga 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Wrestler [Radeon HD 6320] Most of the time, I either have to deal with Intel or NVidia graphic chipsets. As far as I understand, I can choose either the free 'radeon' driver or the

Latest amd/ati drivers (8.37|8.38) supports composite with dri. So, after patching beryl (cause he can work without tfp) to make it use direct rendering on "aiglx method" and removed check for GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, which fails. - I was able to run beryl on fglrx WITHOUT Xgl. Only bug with windows drawing exists(as noticed in latest known issues for ati drives), more about this bug -

Please bear with me for a really stupid question... I have a Radeon HD 4550 video card and currently run the Catalyst driver, fglrx_6_9_0-8.741-1.
