The netinstall did not recognize the HD 7770 card. The AMD Catalyst notes page states the supported distros to be: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Suite 6.3 and 6.4 SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP3 OpenSUSE 11.4 and 12.1 Ubuntu 12.04.2 and 13.04
So I looked for what needs to be done to get drivers working on Debian 7.4. I downloaded the Catalyst installation per: http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/Catalyst-Linux-Installer-Notes.aspx# Then: sudo sh ./amd-catalyst-13.12-linux-x86.x86_64.run --listpkg which produces: Debian Packages: Debian/sid Debian/unstable Debian/etch Debian/stable Debian/lenny Debian/testing Debian/experimental Well, I am running wheezy, Debian 7.4. So I tried: sh ./amd-catalyst-13.12-linux-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Debian/experimental which produced: Generating package: Debian/experimental Error: Distro Version entered incorrectly or not supported, use --listpkg to identify valid distro versions I tried the same thing with Debian/wheezy, and got the same message. Any idea how I may get the card to work in 7.4? What may be the challenges of installing one of: Debian/lenny Debian/testing Debian/experimental then installing the Catalyst package, then upgrading to 7.4?
