How do I install the binary ATI graphics driver?

rated 0 times [ 1] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 3911 / 2 Years ago, sat, september 3, 2022, 5:00:16

I have been trying all day to get a driver up and running on my quad core 64b machine runing 11.10 32b.
I put the driver into downloads and eventually got it permission.
However I am not there yet.

The below commands did not work:

chmod u+x ati-driver-installer-11-x86.x86_64.run

sudo ./ati-driver-installer-11-x86.x86_64.run

sudo sh ./ati-driver-installer-11-12-x86.x86_64.run

It results in:

sh: Cant open sudo sh ./ati-driver-installer-11-12-x86.x86_64.run

Catalyst gives me:

For further configuration of the driver, please run anticonfig from a terminal or AMD CCC:LE from desktop Manager Menu.

I ran sudo aticonfig --initial after antony@antony and got "command not found".
Running sudo aticonfig --initial gives:

sudo ati-config: command not found

Can someone see where I am going wrong? Or where to next?

If you've downloaded the file and saved it to the Downloads directory, you need to make sure that you run the commands from that folder.

If you first open a terminal, you'll see:

you@ubuntu:~$

Since you've saved it into the Downloads directory which is located in your Home folder, execute cd Downloads first:

you@ubuntu:~$ cd Downloads

you@ubuntu:~/Downloads$

(optional) From that directory, you can run ls to verify that the file is there:

you@ubuntu:~/Downloads$ ls

ati-driver-installer-11-x86.x86_64.run

You do not need to make it executable if you use sh:

you@ubuntu:~/Downloads$ sudo sh ati-driver-installer-11-x86.x86_64.run
