Can't install fglrx [SOLVED]

Post by tapp »

Hi!

I'm trying to install ATI propietary drivers for a Radeon HD 6300 graphics card. I've downloaded and installed the Ati drivers from AMD site, and now I need to install flxgr. I enter the following command:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install fglrx-driver
but it fails with the following error (It's in spanish; Imposible obtener stands for can't get):

Code: Select all

E: No se pudieron obtener algunos archivos, ¿quizás deba ejecutar «apt-get update» o deba intentarlo de nuevo con --fix-missing?
I receive similar errors with other software packages (i.e. java), so I think that I have a problem with my apt sources. They're:

Code: Select all

deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ debian main upstream import
deb http://ftp.es.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main non-free
deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free
deb http://linux.dropbox.com/ubuntu maverick main
deb http://liquorix.net/debian/ sid main
They've have been modified by smxi, although previously I had similar problems.

Any suggestions.

Thanks for your help.

* Moved to LMDE forum

Before you think about installing the ATI driver, you should properly update LMDE to update pack 3 with the correct repos.

Thanks!!!

You guided me to the solution. minupdate-debian was not installed (or was uninstalled) :-m I don't know why.

Once I installed it, the pack 3 could be applied without problems.

Best regards.

mirrors.kernel.org has been offline for quite a while, you have to replace that with another repo.

This is because of the kernel.org hacking. Not sure when the mirrors will be back online.
