FGLRX doesn't show in Additional Drivers

rated 0 times [ 1] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 2184 / 1 Year ago, mon, november 7, 2022, 6:40:29

I have Dell Studio 15 with ATI mobility HD 4500 Series graphics card.

In Ubuntu 10.10 I used the FLGRX driver which I installed from the Additional Drivers program, I need this because the open source driver runs my computer dangerously hot.

In 11.04 FGLRX is not available in the Additional Drivers program.

Why is FGLRX not showing in Additional Drivers and how do I install it?

Maybe because they are not installed? I have these drivers in Additional Driver application.

You can just install fglrx package using some package manager or just type in console:

sudo apt-get install fglrx

If you want use the newest version of these driver you have to also add PPA repository:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
