◆ 1. Download page:
Http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html
◆ 2. Choose one to download:
"Linux x86 --> All-in-wonder 9600 series" is a new version,
But "Linux x86 --> FireGL T2-128" is an old version.
Many of these options are "same things all the way". They are not necessarily the same as their own graphics cards. Instead, you need to find the recently released version and click "Release Notes ", if you have your own video card model, you can use this driver.
My down: https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/... 40.4-x86.x86 _ 64.run
◆3. To create installation packages if possible:
./Ati-driver-installer-8.40.4-x86.x86_64.run -- listpkg
My OS "Debian/lenny" is in the list, Very good! It will be much easyer to manage packages.
/Ati-driver-installer-8.40.4-x86.x86_64.run -- buildpkg Debian/lenny
Four '. deb' packages and A'. changes' file will be created.
◆4. Install packages:
Dpkg-I fglrx-amdcccle_8.40.4-1_i386.deb fglrx-driver_8.40.4-1_i386.deb fglrx-driver-dev_8.40.4-1_i386.deb fglrx-kernel-src_8.40.4-1_i386.deb
◆5. Compile kernel module:
Module source is here: '/usr/src/fglrx.tar.bz2 '.
./Make. sh
Cp fglrx. ko/lib/modules/'uname-R'/misc/fglrx. ko
Depmod-AE
Perhaps you cann't insert the module now, because maybe other modules of display are already in the kernel. It comes normal after reboot.
◆6. Edit 'xorg. conf', add:
# To avoid AIGLX error in X log

◆7. Over clock or slow clock:
# Apt-get install rovclock
This command has the same function as NV's 'nvclock '.
* Later, when debian was updated, it was found that the debian source already had the fglrx driver, which was the four packages above and added a 'control' package, and its version was slightly newer, update now. this also means that debian users can directly search for 'fglrx 'in the source without the first four steps, install apt, and then compile the kernel module.
