2009-09-20 05:14:16 Benjamin Humphrey fglrx-installer (Ubuntu): status Fix Released Incomplete
2009-09-20 05:17:17 Benjamin Humphrey description Hi there, Okay so i've been having a bit of trouble getting anything higher than 9.4 to run on my laptop and I'm not sure why. I upgraded from 9.4 to 9.8 by doing the following: [CODE] sudo sh ./fglrx-uninstall.sh sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg sudo rm -r /etc/ati/ sudo chmod +x ati-driver-installer-9-8-x86.x86_64.run sudo sh ati-driver-installer-9-8-x86.x86_64.run sudo aticonfig --initial -f sudo reboot now [/CODE] Then when the computer rebooted I got something along the lines of "Ubuntu is now running in low graphics mode" and was given a few options, to run in low graphics for this session only, to troubleshoot the graphics, to reconfigure and one last one that I can't remember. I logged in and my computer resolution was set to 1024x768 (it should be 1280x800 widescreen) so it was rather ugly. "Display" had no other options than 1024x768. This is the output of running fglrxinfo: [CODE] benjamin@benjamin-laptop:~$ fglrxinfo X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) Major opcode of failed request: 135 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString) Serial number of failed request: 16 Current serial number in output stream: 16 [/CODE] And here is my lspci: [CODE] benjamin@benjamin-laptop:~$ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile PM965/GM965/GL960 Memory Controller Hub (rev 03) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile PM965/GM965/GL960 PCI Express Root Port (rev 03) 00:1a.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #4 (rev 03) 00:1a.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #5 (rev 03) 00:1a.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller #2 (rev 03) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 1 (rev 03) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 2 (rev 03) 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 3 (rev 03) 00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 4 (rev 03) 00:1c.4 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) PCI Express Port 5 (rev 03) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 03) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #2 (rev 03) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB UHCI Controller #3 (rev 03) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller #1 (rev 03) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev f3) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801HEM (ICH8M) LPC Interface Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801HBM/HEM (ICH8M/ICH8M-E) IDE Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 82801HBM/HEM (ICH8M/ICH8M-E) SATA AHCI Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) SMBus Controller (rev 03) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M76 [Radeon Mobility HD 2600 Series] 01:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RV630/M76 audio device [Radeon HD 2600 Series] 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8055 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 12) 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61) 08:06.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Cardbus Controller 08:06.1 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments PCIxx12 OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller 08:06.2 Mass storage controller: Texas Instruments 5-in-1 Multimedia Card Reader (SD/MMC/MS/MS PRO/xD) 08:06.3 SD Host controller: Texas Instruments PCIxx12 SDA Standard Compliant SD Host Controller [/CODE] Here is my Xorg log: [CODE] X.Org X Server 1.6.0 Release Date: 2009-2-25 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.24-15-server x86_64 Ubuntu Current Operating System: Linux benjamin-laptop 2.6.28-15-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Tue Aug 18 19:25:34 UTC 2009 x86_64 Build Date: 09 April 2009 02:11:54AM xorg-server 2:1.6.0-0ubuntu14 (buildd@crested.buildd) Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version.

Upon boot, the screen froze on several purple and green ubuntu logos, wouldn't let me into virtual terminal at all. Had to hard reset and drop down to root shell, uninstall the ATI drivers using fglrx-uninstall.sh and then reconfigure the xorg.conf file just to be able to boot back into the desktop. Could someone please help me? Much appreciated, Benjamin EDIT: It might also be worth mentioning that I have no "Catalyst Control Center" in Applications menu like I did with 9.4. This is the error I get when I run "sudo amdcccle" in terminal: "There was a problem initializing Catalyst Control Center Linux edition. It could be caused by the following: No ATI graphics driver is installed, or the ATI driver is not functioning properly. Please install the ATI driver appropriate for you ATI hardware, or configure using aticonfig. UPDATE: See comments below. Bug STILL NOT FIXED when using the newer version of fglrx-installer from karmic. I presume that other karmic packages need to be installed as well as the new fglrx-installer, such as xorg or xserver packages.... but which ones? There are hundreds of X related packages available for upgrade in the karmic repositories. Remember, I'm running Jaunty.

Upon boot, the screen froze on several purple and green ubuntu logos, wouldn't let me into virtual terminal at all. Had to hard reset and drop down to root shell, uninstall the ATI drivers using fglrx-uninstall.sh and then reconfigure the xorg.conf file just to be able to boot back into the desktop. Could someone please help me? Much appreciated, Benjamin EDIT: It might also be worth mentioning that I have no "Catalyst Control Center" in Applications menu like I did with 9.4. This is the error I get when I run "sudo amdcccle" in terminal: "There was a problem initializing Catalyst Control Center Linux edition. It could be caused by the following: No ATI graphics driver is installed, or the ATI driver is not functioning properly. Please install the ATI driver appropriate for you ATI hardware, or configure using aticonfig.
