Which features the Radeon driver provides for your card.If the output from this command: lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use' is: Kernel driver in use: radeon, your Radeon graphic driver is loaded. But you card is supported by the open source Radeon driver: It means that your card isn't supported anymore by the proprietary Fglrx driver. This maybe include the ATI Radeon Mobility X1600 graphic card. However, the Catalyst 9-3 driver doesn't support X servers past 1.5, and it will not work with Precise (or anything later than Lucid/10,04)! !!!SO BE CAREFUL!!! If you tried to install Catalyst on a system with one of these cards, see the 'Removing the Driver' section to restore the default/pre-installed drivers. NOTE: If you enter your card information on AMD/ATI's driver page, it will offer you the Catalyst 9-3 driver to download. If you really need the proprietary Catalyst/fglrx driver, you will have to use an older Linux distribution, such as Debian Lenny/5.0.x or Ubuntu Hardy/8.04.x. The Unofficial AMD Linux Driver Wiki says:ĪTI Radeon 9500-9800, Xpress200-1250, 690G, 740G, X300-X2500, Mobility RadeonHD 2300 If your card is on that list, you are limited to open-source drivers on Ubuntu Lucid/10.04 (and later).
