Swerver,

 

In other guides re: ATI drivers and ML 10.1 I have read that you need to recompile the kernel to include dri, tmpfs, agpgart (for you chipset).

 

Did you have to recompile your kernel at all before attempting this install?

 

Nope nothing at all, all vanilla out of the box installation......

My Chipset was intel

intel-agp comes as standard - most of them did

I followed each step you had to the T and when i rebooted after they were all installed it knocked out kde (i guess). It boots from the command prompt. What do i do about this?

Well, I'm attempting to get acceleration going on my card. It is onboard my laptop. here is what MCC says about it:

 

Identification
Vendor: ‎ATI

Description: ‎Radeon IGP320M (U1) 4336

Media class: ‎DISPLAY_VGA

Connection
Bus: ‎PCI

Bus PCI #: ‎1

PCI device #: ‎5

PCI function #: ‎0

Vendor ID: ‎4098

Device ID: ‎17206

Sub vendor ID: ‎5663

Sub device ID: ‎8246

Misc
Module: ‎Card:ATI Radeon (fglrx)

 

Now, I notice that the last line says its using the fglrx drivers, yet no commands work to get any kind of reading. from the glxgears command, i used to get around 190 FPS, but i just tried it again and got in the 80-90 FPS (dunno whats up with that). I know laptop cards are not supported, like, at all. But Im wondering if this would be worth my time.

HI,

 

I'm newbie, and I read most of the topic about installing Xorg 6.8 and Ati.

But I didn't see this error :

 

rpm -Uh --force fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1.i386.rpm

 

error: Failed dependencies:

libstdc++.so.5 is needed by fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1

libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2) is needed by fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1

libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2) is needed by fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1

 

I know that I have to download or to install this dependencies, but where I get it ?

 

Thanks for your support.

Should read

rpm -ivh --force fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1.i386.rpm

thanks solarian:

 

I find gcc3.3-3.3.4-2mdk.src.rpm for 10.1 and gcc3.3-3.3.4-4mdk.src.rpm for 10.2

 

I have 10.1. Can I use rpm for 10.2 or can I have problem ?

 

And what's about :

 

Name: glibc-debug

Version: 2.3.3-23.1.101mdk

Size: 58877 KB

Medium: updates

Currently installed version: (none)

 

did I install this or only gcc ?

 

What's the difference from :

 

rpm -ivh --force fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1.i386.rpm

 

rpm -Uh --force fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1.i386.rpm

I've installed from urpmi gcc3.3-3.3.4-2 (and it's dependencie) but when I try to install driver from ati I have the same error:

error: Failed dependencies:

libstdc++.so.5 is needed by fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1

libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2) is needed by fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1

libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2) is needed by fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1

 

I try to reboot, but nothing change.

 

What can I do now ?

 

Searching on my hd I find this :

 

/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.1

/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6
