Thread: 12.10 x64 ati proprietary drivers hd 6 series


i trying proprietary drivers radeon hd6850 work having problems, when use update manager switch either of 2 proprietary drivers, after reboot, computer slow scroll windows in nautilus or windows on desktop. running fglrxinfo gives me errors. wondering if there a special method supposed use proprietary drivers working?

code:
paridoth@basement-ubuntu:~$ fglrxinfo  x error of failed request:  badrequest (invalid request code or no such operation)    major opcode of failed request:  155 (atifglextension)    minor opcode of failed request:  66 ()    serial number of failed request:  13    current serial number in output stream:  13

i still on 12.04, since last attempt on getting 6850 working in 12.10 wasn't great.

being said, did check out wiki? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/binarydriverhowto/ati

isntructions there pretty complete. make sure remove old fglrx drivers before installing new ones, if installed amd website.
