ATI Driver Problems Version 8.533.3.1-​081110a-07​5168C-Leno​vo
I hope I'm pasting this in the correct location.
The lastet version of the ATI drivers for my ThinkPad (T60) have a problem. The Catalyst Control Panel will simply open and close really fast. It will not run. Is there anyway to diagnose and fix this issue?
At this time I am forced to use NGO's Optimized drivers, but I'd rather use Lenovo's drivers.
Thank you.

ATI Driver Problem - Encore CS5
Hi All,
I have spent a number of hours now trying to troubleshoot an issue with Encore CS5. I have it installed on a HP 6930p Notebook computer with a ATI HD3400 onboard video card. Whenever Encore starts, my screens go black and I get an error "display driver stopped responding and has recovered". I have the latest (22nd October 2010) drivers installed and I have tried changing nearly every setting for the display card, but to no avail. It is obviously the driver, because if I change the driver back to the standard Microsoft driver, the software works, but with limited resolution and without the ability to extend screens. If I also revert to the oldest version of the ATI driver, it doesn't black out, just crashes with a "application has stopped working" error.
Now I could just keep changing drivers when I use Encore, but this is a bit extreme and you would think it would work. All my other CS5 software works ok... PPro, AE, Photoshop, InDesign etc.
Operating System is Windows 7 Enterprise 64Bit with 4GB Memory.
Anyone got any suggestions or advice? Or is anyone else having a similar issue and managed to solve the problem?
I could always install my older version of Encore CS4, but does installing Encore CS4 after CS5 has been installed cause any issues or problems? Is this the easiest answer?
Regards, John.You have to do what you have to do, but I would be reluctant to settle for EN CS4 with a CS5 suite - dynamic link is further improved, and you'll be giving that up or complicating it.
(Yes, there are some users with problems, particularly doing Bluray, and they refer to using CS4 at times to fix things. I like dual installations.)
No real idea on the video card issues. I do think it is interesting that it is only Encore. -
Overheating the laptop - Ati driver problem (SOLVED)
Hi ppl.
I have Acer Aspire 5732 Z laptop. Intel Pentium processor T4400 2.2 GHz. Ati Mobility Radeon HD 4570 512 MB VRAM, 15.6", 3 GB RAM, 320 GB HDD.
I successfully solved all the problems during the installation, but this one I can not handle. The laptop is HEATING too much. I also have Ubuntu 9.10 on the other partition and its all fine. Its working on the temperature of ~46 C. And my Arch is working on the temperature of ~60 C. So its about 15 C difference between Ubuntu and Arch. Way too much.
Arch is running in KDE mode. Have to add that I installed all KDE packages. Maybe the cause of this problem ?
I am using the proprietary Ati Radeon driver. I tried to change it with open source Ati driver but Xorg refused to configure again (gave me a blank screen).
I checked Wiki on laptop, but didnt succeded to solve this problem. Here s my rc.conf:
MODULES=( acpi-cpufreq )
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng dbus hal !acpid !acpi-support powernowd wicd !network !netfs alsa crond laptop-mode kdm)
powernowd configuration:
OPTIONS="-q -u 30 -l 10"
acpi-support is blacklisted because I installed it from AUR and didnt managed it to work. Its just saying "no permission" during the boot. I actually installed it because I read that its Ubuntus Acpi management. ~ I repeat Acpi is working fine on my Ubuntu.
I can also show my laptop-mode configuration files - if needed.
I am a newbie for Arch but I rlly done my best on this issue as I want to use this system. I think its great and highly configurable and I just love the fact its a rolling distro. But I cant use it overheating.
So, please help.

I am using lmsensors on Arch and some kind of panel sensor on Mint, but its ok for sure. Few minutes ago I checked temperature on Arch and it was 56 C. Then I rebooted and when I logged into Mint it was 56 C. But few mins later temperature normalized to 45 C in Mint. After lsmod I logged into Arch again and temperature raised to 54 C.
So its Arch problem for sure.
@hokasch
I am not sure about noise level of fans. Sounds similar to me. But maybe its a fan problem. I know its sometimes loud and sometimes silent. Probably depends on the system temperature. Maybe Arch cant control it normaly. Is there any kind of software that is used for fan speed ?

Kernel 2.6.14.4 - ATI Driver - Problem
hello,
i have a problem with the ati driver 8.20.8.
i have installed it from the community tree.
pacman -S ati-drivers
it installed a kernel *ck and the ati driver.
after that i do a
fglrxconfig
my xorg.conf ist correct. fglrx is enterd at driver and the dri section is availabil.
3D isnt availabil, look at this screenshot.
you can see that the mesa driver is loaded.
whats wrong ?
thanks for you help!
Last edited by ogu (2007-04-02 13:31:03)Hi, I have the same problem. I uninstalled mesa and I still get this line
OpenGL renderer string: MESA GLX indirect (which I obviously shouldn't).
Moreover the X log file is trying to convince me that I have direct rendering:
bash-3.00# cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep Direct
(II) fglrx(0): Direct rendering enabled
whereas running
bash-3.00# glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: No
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
claims the opposite :shock:
10x in advance
(btw. kernel 2.6.14archck4-1, xorg 11R6.8.2)
EDIT: After a reboot even glxinfo thinks that DRI is enabled, which is obviously not the case (foobillard is running real slooooooow) ... strange things are going on... -
Radeon Mobility HD 4650 / xf86-video-ati driver problem
Hi everyone,
I am under Archlinux with my laptop (Asus N81vp) since a year, and i've got this problem since the begining. With the radeon driver installed, my X work well but the fan of my card is screaming and my laptop anormaly hot. I do not have this problem under Windows or with the catalyst driver (witch is working). I really want to use the radeon, more maintained (and free ^^).
I cannot have the temperature and the state of the fan, my ic2 chips aren't recognized by lm-sensors...
I really don't know where the problem is : if anyone have a Radeon mobility HD 4650, i would like to know if they have the same problem or a solution. Maybe it's a bug of the driver, or a configuration problem...
Anyway, if anyone have a solution, i googlize it for hours, and this problem outclass my knowledge...
Here's a bit of my hardware and configs files. I you want more, tell me
Thanx in advance (and i'm sorry if my english sucks, i'm from France ...)

Last edited by Spartakus (2011-07-19 18:30:40)As far as I know, the open source driver simply churns through quite a bit more power than catalyst when idling. The higher core temperature is the unfortunate direct result of this.
I'm using xf86-video-ati 6.14.2-1 too, but with a Radeon Mobility HD4570 (which is detected by lm-sensors, by the way). With the default driver settings (highest power state), I see core temperatures as high as 88 degrees C when doing nothing. I've added
echo mid > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile
to /etc/rc.local as a workaround for the issue. This basically forces a lower power mode than default at boot. Currently, my GPU idles at 64 degrees C, which is sort of acceptable in my opinion. The obvious side effect of this workaround is that your graphics performance goes down, which I'd even notice in Gnome 3's transitions (not being as smooth as before).

AMD/ATI driver problems on a Dell laptop with attached dual monitors
I have a Dell Precision M4800 laptop with a docking station for two additional monitors. I'm shooting for a "big desktop" setup, with my laptop display and the two external monitors forming one large multi-monitor X screen.
When deciding which video driver I'd need, I did the usual:
$ lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Venus XT [Radeon HD 8800M Series]
Which is weird, because the M4800 isn't shipped with 8800M cards. Rather, it's shipped with the AMD FirePro M5100 Mobility Pro (see above link) (also, too many "Pros", AMD...).
I tried the open-source driver, but I couldn't get both my external monitors working in tandem, so I went with catalyst-test, since the non-beta version of the proprietary driver doesn't support the 3.13 kernel (or my alleged 8800M series card, for what it's worth).
My display setup using catalyst-test is still far from ideal. My dual (horizontally adjacent) monitors reset to cloned/mirrored desktops after every reboot, and my machine refuses to show three monitors (dual monitors + laptop display), even with the 2GB of dedicated RAM in my graphics card (see above M4800 link). There's other miscellaneous annoyances as well.
Using hardinfo, I see that my VGA driver thinks it only has 256MB of RAM... which doesn't align with the M4800 specs. Is there a way to change this value?
Just today, I found the catalyst-firepro driver, which I think might be the correct driver for my laptop, at least given the specs on the M4800 from the website.
There's also the option of not using my AMD card at all, and just using the Intel graphics on my laptop. (I had to disable hybrid graphics in my BIOS to get any AMD-specific drivers to work). I'd like to steer away from this, due to the performance loss, but I'd be willing to make the change if the pros outweighed the cons.
As I see it, I have a few options:
AMD/ATI open source driver: Can't seem to get two monitors working, much less three...
catalyst-test: Any two monitors will work together, but not three. Other annoyances.
catalyst-firepro: Have not tested yet.
Intel open-source driver with AMD card disabled: Have not tested yet.
Can anyone who has had similar issues and/or hardware offer a best course of action which has worked for them? I know we're supposed to avoid "opinion" questions, but I think this is grounded enough in the scientific method to merit some helpful responses.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!clfarron4 wrote:
The last option to me is screaming catalyst-pxp at me, because that's one of the few options if you have integrated graphics and a discrete graphics card.
Let me get this straight: Can you disable the either or both of the Intel/AMD graphics in the BIOS settings? If so, but don't want to disable either, you might want to look at the hybrid graphics section of the wiki.
I know about powerXpress and I think I'd like to avoid it. My experience with hybrid graphics on other Linux distributions is that it's rather unstable or just plain unsupported. If someone can convince me otherwise, given their experience with hybrid graphics on Arch/Linux, I might reconsider.
I'm fairly certain I can enable either of my GPU's separately, but I'll have to check for sure next I reboot my PC.
The last option I mentioned because I thought the Intel drivers might be more robust than the AMD drivers, which have don't have a sterling reputation when it comes to supporting Linux (compared to nVidia anyways, who I know in the past have had good Linux support). -
Hi,
Just had to reformat and reinstall my T60p, and have put XP SP3 and the lenovo ATI video driver v8.533 on. Since then, I've had intermittent video redraw problems - parts of windows not being redrawn when minimising / maximising. Seems to affect all applications, and there's very little else installed other than a couple of portable apps.
It seems that sometimes the video performance is really really bad - windows leaving trails behind them when being dragged across the screen, just like an unaccelerated video driver would. And various rectangles of windows failing to be redrawn completely.
But sometimes, its working fine - I can't see a pattern to it (yet). I've tried reinstalling the driver from a fresh download, and I've tried disabling acceleration in the troubleshooting section of display properties, with no effect. And there doesn't seem to be anything in CCC which helps, but for info, here's what it says:

I tried downloading the bios flash utility from your link anyway, but it said I already had the latest version (which is what I thought), and didn't need to update. I confirmed this by booting into the bios config screen, and it definitely displays ...3WW there. I must admit I had assumed the bios details from CCC were for the GPU bios, not the machine's bios. But I couldn't find any references to updating the GPU bios.

Satellite P200D - Problem with ATI Driver (atikmdag)
Hello,
My System:
P200D-111 HD 2600, AMD Turion 64X2, Vista Home Premium 32bit
The Problem:
Blank screen, computer is shutting down from it self, or the Comment from Vista: Driver atikmdag caused a Problem and would restore.
Every time the Computer shuts down from it self, Vista gives me the answer that atikmdag caused the Problem.
Yesterday I've tried to Benchmark the System but at the End of the Program the Display flares and Computer is shutting down.
My Question:
Is a newer Driver for the HD 2600 in work or has anybody the straight tip for me?Hello,
Display Driver is newest version: 8.383.1.1 this version was on the computer as i bought it
I'm running the Display Driver only in Factory Settings
No, I've tried to Test the System with the new version of 3D Mark 06 but at the End of the Test procedure the display flared and computer has crashed.
Problem is also with Medal of Honor or Battlefield 1942. Computer crashed and Vista gives me the comment that atikmdag had caused the Problem
Recovery was succesful but the same Problem with the ATI Driver

/var/abs/local/ati-drivers/src/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/nvidia-agp.c:57: error: static declaration of '__fgl_agp_try_unsupported' follows non-static declaration
/var/abs/local/ati-drivers/src/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/agp_backend.h:92: error: previous declaration of '__fgl_agp_try_unsupported' was here
After googling around, the problem seems to be with GCC versions (I'm using 4.0.1, the driver probably uses 3.x.x). Then this post pointed me to a patch. Pardon my ignorance, but how do I use this patch? Or are there any other options available?
Thanks!
WillI saved it as a .patch file in {driver dir}/src/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod and it works!

Win7 and ATI hd 3400 series driver problem
Hi guys
i have installed win7 on my T400. generally there is not driver problem. but in device manager window there is a '!' on ATI mobility Radeon hd 3400 Series. i have downloaded ATI Display Driver for Windows 7 32bit and 64bit from http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/WIN7-BETA.html#m8xdiscrete but there is not any change.
1-is it a serious problem?
2-how can i solve this problem?
best regards
Solved!
Go to Solution.Since your system shows two display adapters, you do have switchable graphics. Deinstall the ATI driver and install the Switchable Graphics driver. This package contains drivers for both cards and allows them to cooperate.

ATI/AMD driver problem, HD6470M & HD6520G
Hi everyone, I've just installed Arch on my laptop which is lenove Z475 with AMD Radeon HD 6470M & HD 6520G, and it seems I've met several problem with the driver.
First, I've tried the catalyst, using "catalyst-generator 11.8-1", adding "radeon.modeset=0", but the topbar of Gnome3 just disappear and it crashed a few times.
So I decided to use "xf86-video-ati", but if I don't add "radeon.modeset=0", the screen goes black.
If I add "radeon.modeset=0", then I only got a "fallback" mode.
I've read wiki but still didn't how to solve it and I've tried to search but English is not my mother tongue, and I don't really know what "key word" would work better...
So... how to make the xf86-video-ati driver work normally?
Anybody can help?ATI drivers from what I know still have major issues with Gnome3 - I am not sure if there is a solution. Check the AUR comments on catalyst package. I don't personally use Gnome so I'm not 100% sure.

HP G62 Ati HD 5470 driver problem (Blue-Scre​en)
Hello, I have installed a new Win7 64-bit, and I have downloaded every driver and installed successfully except ATI HD 5470 driver.
I have switchable graphics one is intel HD graphics and the other is ATI HD 5470.
When I attemt installing ati hd5470 driver my computer is going black then blue screen and booting itself, to solve this problem, Im booting in safe-mode then uninstalling ATI driver.
Product: XR486EA#AB8
Model: G62-b14ST
I need help! Thank you.Hello, Garrylily
I see that your trying to get the graphics installed after installing Win7 onto the notebook. I will try to assist you with this.
1) are you using the drivers from here: HP G62-b14ST Notebook PC Drivers.
2) if you are, installed the Intel driver first, then the amd driver.
3) if it's still blue screening, try installing the drivers from safe mode
4) if it fails from safe mode, the issue could be with the installed OS, try a recovery. (make sure to be using the recovery media for the notebook, so that your installing the OS that was on the notebook)
5) try drivers again (intel then amd)
6) contact phone support:

Blizzard support says you have a driver problem ATI, RadeonHD2600
I am an avid World of Warcraft player. I am having UI hanging and crashing problems as well as an in game problem. I have been sending in the crash logs when I recover the system.
I called Blizzard tech support about the ingame problem. The problem is that in the Zangermarsh zone the WoW mini map goes transparent often. We went through several debugging or work around steps. This included recovering the UI. A process where you remove the Interface, Cache and *** directories and allow the client to rebuild them as default. Another step was to change the "/console uifaster" setting in the game client. After this the problem was still present.
The Blizzard tech then stated that it was an Apple driver problem. I queried him on whether the Blizzard developers had contacted Apple on this problem and he could not provide that information.
Would someone from Apple support please let me know if these issues have been reported by Blizzard to Apple? Also does Apple believe that there is a problem with the ATI Radeon HD2600 driver or is it a Blizzard issue?Hi Unix Guru;
Well, I can tell you here is not the place to talk to Apple Support. The only ones you will find here is other users like yourself.
You might have better luck here.
