Download the Linux driver suitable for your ATI graphics card, because my computer is ThinkPad t400, 32-bit Ubuntu 9.10.

So I chose Linux x86 and the graphics card driver model is ATI radeon HD 3XXX series. File Name: ati-driver-installer-9-11-x86.x86_64.run.

 

2. install necessary Libraries

Terminal command

Sudo apt-Get install build-essential CDBs fakeroot DH-make debhelper debconf libstdc ++ 5 dkms

Note: libstdc ++ 5 Library cannot be installed, Because ubuntu 9.10 contains the updated libstdc ++ 6 library.

Sh ati-driver-installer-9-11-x86.x86_64.run -- buildpkg Ubuntu/karmic
