Bryan, Thanks for the howto link. I actually had it in my bookmarks some weeks ago but did not get back to read it since my driver was ok at the beginning. I will read it more carefully now and see if I can make some more progress.
Sorry for the confusion, but I should have made it clear that I am aware of using 'sudo'. The reason that I still don't have the /var/lib/dkms/fglrx folder, I think, is due to this error message: [Error] Kernel Module : Removing fglrx-8.723 from DKMS This actually was resulted from the confliction of kernel version, which I think I got the work around in my last post. In other words, this folder was created during the installation, but due to the error in the 'make' command, this folder is then wiped away. However, to really get the problem solved, I will learn the info in your link to see if I missed something. Meanwhile, I see that ati has posted a new version of catalyst last week. Maybe that can give some improvements as well. I will also try it tonight back home. -- fglrx fails at startup because of missing amdpcsdb.default + removal leaves bad settings in Xorg.conf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/440233 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
