fireglcontrolpanel + FC6

[c0le]

Okay, deleted fireglcontrolpanel in every instance where that post said too. Now i'm a little confused as to how to install the drivers. Before i installed by doing

./ati-driver-installer-8.33.6-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Fedora/FC6

but now i have those files extracted into a folder named fglrx-install and they have been modified so i dont know which file or what to do

my best guess was

sh ./ati-installer.sh --buildpkg Fedora/FC6

This gave me:

[root@localhost fglrx-install]# sh ./ati-installer.sh --buildpkg Fedora/FC6
==================================================
ATI Technologies Linux Driver Installer/Packager
==================================================
Unrecognized parameter 'Fedora/FC6' to ati-installer.sh
This script supports the following arguments:
--help : print help messages
--listpkg : print out a list of generatable packages
--buildpkg package : if generatable, the package will be created
--install : install the driver



The same thing happens if i tried --buildpkg Fedora instead of Fedora/FC6



Im a linux noob so what am i doing wrong here?

[Michael]

Try ./ati-installer.sh --buildpkg Fedora/FC6 without the sh

same thing


[root@localhost fglrx-install]# ./ati-installer.sh --buildpkg Fedora/FC6

i get that same thing if i try

./ati-installer.sh --help

./ati-installer.sh --listpkg

Doh, just overlooked something in the beginning of your message.

got farther into the install without errors than i think i ever have.

if you need to look at part i snipped out let me know

[Michael]

I think you deleted a little too much when you were deleting the fireglcontrolpanel stuff. You may want to restart over with the steps of running --extract and then deleting the changes.

[c0le]

i only deleted exactly what that post said too. I double checked as i was doing making sure every line was supposed to be gone. I guess i can try re extracting and modifying all over again but somehow i see myself ending up with the same end result.


Just a thought, that post you linked me too has to do with FC7 Test 1, does that still apply to FC6?


*edit*

Do you have one of your sripts you've made like that post talks about for FC7 Test 1 where you have already modified what needs to be modifed?

[Michael]

You can try using the F7T1 script I mention, but just modify that script from --buildpkg Fedora/F7 to Fedora/FC6

It's basically the same.

[c0le]

Okay, i ran your script using --buildpkg Fedora/FC6 and it worked with no errors. It made the 3 rpm files....but i dont know what to do now...i don't know how to go about installing it now using those rpm's
