Hi,

...4570 is not on the list...
I have Mint15 Linux 3.8.0-19-generic #30-Ubuntu x86_64 working on an acer aspire 5738DG laptop with HD4570 and I never got the driver working. Please, somebody help here, because I really need OpenGL working.
I followed this link:
[url]http://askubuntu.com/questions/285609/how-to-install-amd-ati-radeon-graphics-hd-6770m-on-ubuntu-13-04-64bit[/url]
As far as I understand is this card a little bit outdated. ATIs site is suggesting to use catalyt 13.1 instead of 13.3. Following the steps in the link I til the point of building the package
Code: Select all
sudo ./amd-catalyst-XX.X-linux-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/raring
But 13.1 shows only this packagelist:
Code: Select all
Ubuntu Packages:
Ubuntu/gutsy
Ubuntu/hardy
Ubuntu/intrepid
Ubuntu/jaunty
Ubuntu/karmic
Ubuntu/lucid
Ubuntu/maverick
Ubuntu/natty
Ubuntu/oneiric
Ubuntu/precise
Ubuntu/source
Does catalyst 13.1 work with Mint15
I tried :
Code: Select all
Host amd # ./amd-driver-installer-catalyst-13.1-legacy-linux-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/precise

I would be so happy to have this working out, because without proper drivers it seems like the GPU is always running a little bit out of control and the laptop gets sometimes up to 80°C. Booting windows this never happens.

Installing the catalystdriver there is this message:
One or more tools required for installation cannot be found on the system. Install the required tools before installing the fglrx driver. Optionally, run the installer with --force option to install without the tools. Forcing install will disable AMD hardware acceleration and may make your system unstable. Not recommended. See /usr/share/ati/fglrx-install.log for more details.
fglrx-install.log:
Check if system has the tools required for installation.
fglrx installation requires that the system have kernel headers. /lib/modules/3.8.0-19-generic/build/include/linux/version.h cannot be found on this system.

ok. here (http://askubuntu.com/questions/301973/propertiary-driver-ati-mobility-radeon-hd2600) they write, that fglrx is not working in 13.04.
