  • Problems with Ati 3870x2 and 8.02 Driver

    I heard that one gpu of my ati 3870x2 would work with the most recent fglrx, so I decided to give it a try but all I get is an error and back to vesa. Im running 64bit gutsy and here is a snip from my x log:

    (II) Primary Device is: PCI 04:00:0
    (II) ATI Proprietary Linux Driver Version Identifier:8.45.5
    (II) ATI Proprietary Linux Driver Release Identifier: UNSUPPORTED-8.455.2
    (II) ATI Proprietary Linux Driver Build Date: Feb 1 2008 10:11:56
    (WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:4:0:0) found
    (EE) No devices detected.

    Fatal server error:
    no screens found

    Has anyone tried this card and been successful? Do I just need to trick it into thinking its a single 3870? Any help would be much appreciated.

    HD3870X2 and FGLRX!

    Hi!

    I don't think the ATI fglrx driver (8.2) support the X2 version, I had to install the RadeonHD driver to get my card up and running.
