How to uninstall radeonhd? [Ubuntu Gutsy]

[]--Freeman--[]

Well 8.42 is too short, you can use: 8.443.1, 7-11, 8.42.3, 8.41.7, 8.40.4 and 8.39.4 as option currently for kernel 2.6.24 based systems.

Thanks a lot Kano for your help. I've installed 8.42.3 and all works perfectly. I don't know why fglrx 8.1 doesn't work with my ati card (Sapphire Ati x1600 512M AGP). I hope this black screen problem fixes in future releases.

By the way, where does the installer download the ati driver?

Regards!

You find em in /usr/src.

That's not important. I would suggest to use

-v 8.39.4

as option to my script to force the driver, which is the last driver with "old" codebase without Google Earth problems. AIGLX would not work with Xserver 1.4 anyway and you don't have got that stupid issue that any other "first" 3d app expect glxgears would hang. Of course you can force any newer driver too with that option (but not lower due to kernel 2.6.24).

Hi,
I need some advice. You mean that if I install 8.39.4 the problem related to freezing every first started 3D app after x restart will be solved? Do I understand it right?

Because I done that and still same crash. I have tried every fix I found (disabling atieventsd, TerminateServer=true, switching off overlays) and nothing helped on this. I can restart x server now but if I start after restart e.i. fgl_glxgears the system hardlocks. Pretty annoying bug .

(8.3) (8.42.3) (8.39.4) this are the versions I have tested today .. but I am quit certain that it happaned with every release since the new codebase I have installed sofar.

I don't know why fglrx 8.1 doesn't work with my ati card (Sapphire Ati x1600 512M AGP)

I had to set the AGP gart/aperture size to 512 in my BIOS to get my AGP Sapphire X1600pro to work. I use 8-3 which has working textured video as well as 3D. I haven't tried google earth, openarena and et-wolf seem stable but etqw crashes on some maps.
