Ok, i managed the "preview dirver" to work. The problem was my dual screen configuration file. Nevertheless i'll wait for the "official" driver to change my laptop config.
The way i made it was [excuse me if i make some 'speeling' mistakes i making i from memory]: ./$preview_drivers_name$.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/intrepid (--listpkg will give you a list of supported package, Ubuntu 8.10 claims to be supported but in experimental process ) next install all generated deb first fglrx-kernel-source$ then fglrx modaliases$ both xorg-driver-fglrx_8.580-$ and xorg-driver-fglrx-dev_8.580$ [not sure if the *-dev* package is needed. Should be for devellopers only --openGL stuff ...] then libamdxvba1$ and finaly fglrx-amdccle$$ configuration : simply do a 'sudo aticonfig --initial' Some features are buggy, like amdccle that begun giving a seg fault when i put some dual screen config in it. test those drivers at last they install properly without 'ABI' errors when the aticonfig --initial is done ! Cheers and thank to Pet who gave the preview driver link. -- r3xx Hardware does not work with fglrx [EPR#257839] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/284408 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
