Comment 93 for bug 1493888

@Alberto Milone

Sorry to say but I cant get it to run properly.. Here is some additional info:

What I did is that I tried to run the commands in the terminal described in post #48.. could not execute all the commands, got stuck halfway somewhere.. so I downloaded the .deb files from the same post and installed them all..

Then it worked with fglrx!

BUT

Then software updater told me there was a update to the amd minimal core driver and amd driver something? (sorry dont remember what appeared, but it was 2 packages it wanted to update)..

After I installed that updates from the automatic software updater.. all I got after restart was a black screen :(

So I "sudo apt-get purge fglrx*" manually and after that was back to the desktop again with the regular drivers..

Then I tried install the fglrx-updates via system settings -> program and updates -> additional drivers..

That does not work.. only boots to a black screen for me..

I have amd hd 6450 card so I think it should be supported actually..

It did get to work with the .deb files in comment #48, but not when I do the install via system settings of fglrx-updates..

The drivers / amd update getting pushed out from automatic software updater did not work for me, maybe for some other also?

Just wanted to inform you.. Thanks for all your work everyone who contributed to this!
Have a great day! /Micke
