[SOLVED] fglrx not working, tearing, after update

EDIT: I'm guessing it was because the new "linux" version conflicted with the catalyst. I have -Syu'd again some hours later, there was an update to the catalyst. That solved it.
Update done yesterday, and installed some packages, pacman-log:
http://pastebin.com/1TaAJm2j
And since today I get tearing and poor graphics performance.
I'm guessing the radeon module loaded instead of the fglrx.
[ubunchu@ubunchu ~]$ dmesg | grep radeon
[ 6.461879] [drm] VGACON disable radeon kernel modesetting.
[ 6.463150] [drm] Initialized radeon 1.33.0 20080528 for 0000:07:00.0 on minor 0
[ubunchu@ubunchu ~]$ dmesg | grep fglrx
[ 0.940223] fglrx: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout
[ 1.000933] fglrx: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout
[ 6.493177] fglrx: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout
[ 6.509716] fglrx: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout
[ 14.149160] fglrx: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout
The wiki sais that I should blacklist radeon, and enable/load fglrx.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AT … emd_method
But in /etc/modules-load.d/ there are no files to be edited.
Did I miss something? That's not the problem?
Thanks in advance,
Cheers!

    Keyboard not working correctly after updating to 8.1 64bit pro.
    After I updated, everything seemed ok and then all of the sudden I rebooted and only the f1 – f12 row would work. I resorted to resorted to unplugging and removing the battery and it would work for a short amount of time. This has been reported on other laptops as well, see here.

  • Script does not work anymore after updating to FM 12.0.3

    Hi,
    With TCS5, Robohelp would crash when importing FrameMaker books to RH, because the FM files had embedded graphics. So, I found a script to externalize the graphics before doing the import (the script is: ExtendScript of the week: Externalizing Graphics « TechComm Central by Adobe). However, this script is not working since I updated from 12.0.2 to 12.0.3. And without this script, we can't create HTML5 output!
    Although I wrote a few simple scripts, this one is quite complex and would be difficult to debug. Anyone here knows what could have changed to make the script useless after such a small update? Or can update this script to make it work?
    Thanks!

    Hi again,
    For those who would like to know... I made this script work with 12.0.3. I simply removed the instructions that  added an item in the File menu and stuff about a report, which I don't think ever worked. So, I still don't know exactly why it didn't work anymore (don't have time or knowledge to investigate), but I'm still interested to know.

  • Social App not working even after update from noki...

    My wife and i have the same problem now, only last week she said my phone will not work on facebook the widget on main home screen will not load feeds at all, and the widget is now blank saying refresh all the time, so i linked the phone up to the computer and did a scan for new updates with nokia updater which you can download from nokia site.
    Its now the 4th jan and the phones still will not work even after and update from a socail app,
    nothing , facebook will load after a few pushes, and looks like its loading till it says loading feeds then it says the (wording unable to load news feeds) 

    Uninstall the social app and reboot your phone. Then go to software updates and reinstall from the offering given in the updates. I've uninstalled and reinstalled social twice and it has worked both times.

  • Windows 8.1 Not Working Properly after Updating Boot Camp Drivers to 5.1

    Hi all!
    Recently I had a problem with the sound in Windows 8.1 using BC v5. That problem was resolved by updating the Boot Camp Drivers to 5.1. Now I've more problems than before.
    1. Some service are not loading at all at the startup (which did before)
    The Boot Camp service is not loading automatically at startup, other Windows Services are not loading at the startup after updating the Boot Camp Drivers (Windows Update)
    2. Microsoft Office cannot verify license for the product.
    This problem is due to the services that won't start automatically. I can't even do a repair of MS Office 2013... Even though it's a legal version of MS Office.
    There are many many more problems I think... I just haven't discovered them yet which is very very annoying. When I was using Windows 8.1 with the Boot Camp Drivers version 5 there were few bugs than now...
    Please is there any notice of these errors? Or am I the only one who is experiencing these errors??? Please give me some answers!
    Thanks in advance!!

    I updated them by downloading the zip file from the Apple site...
    I've just updated Mac OS X and it seems that this was the solution... Everything works fine! (For now)

  • Isight is not working anymore after updating to snow leopard

    it used to work very well. i updated snow leopard 5 days ago. i try to use skype and photo booth, it is never working again. do people have the same problem?
    thank you for your information

    Thanks for the info - however surely this has something to do with the snow leopard software update - not a hardware failure or is that just a coincidence?
    My iSight was working fine before I upgraded to snow leopard? Is there a software fix coming?
    Welcome to Discussions, lightwright
    ... this has something to do with the snow leopard software update ...
    You may be correct that the problem has something to do with your SL update, but, as previously explained, many of us successfully use iSight every day after upgrading to Snow Leopard, so the problem is not SL itself. If you believe that your problem is with your update, you should consider reapplying the update using the method suggested above.
    If you continue to have iSight problems after properly applying the SL update, consider all relevant troubleshooting suggestions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    However, if your iSight problem continues, and if iSight now does NOT show as a USB device in your Mac's System Profiler, yours is most likely a hardware problem. In that case, contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.
    If, after properly applying the SL update and using the Troubleshooting suggestions, iSight IS recognized in System Profiler but still does NOT work with any of your video-enabled Apple software, your disk may contain some pre-SL software that is causing problems. Either erase the disk and apply only Apple software to see if that fixes your problem, or seek help from your Apple-Authorized Service Provider.
    ... Is there a software fix coming?

  • Applications not working properly after updating t...

    After eventually updating to symbian Anna, I've noticed that some applications are not working properly, notably AccuWeather and Facebook. Uninstalled AccuWeather and re-installed it but still didn't work . Seems pointless releasing a software update and then to discover that applications from Ovi store won't work on your device! With Facebook I can only login in to my account but when I go to view a friend etc, it shuts down. 
    Has anyone any suggestions or solutions to the problem?
    Thanks

    i updated to the latest version 025.007 on my E7 too and a lot of the apps on the store dont work. Just blank screens.
    Somebody do something!!
    I use other devices, and havent faced this problem with any of them after an upgrade!

  • Camera led is not working properly after update

    After updating to IOS 6.0.1 led is not working properly.
    When filming , the led is burning very weak, and when lightsetting is turned to

    Reset your phone first, hold the home and off button down until the apple symbol comes up. If that doesnt do it, then do a restore from your backup in itunes.

  • My wacom tablet does not work correctly after updating to mavericks.

    My wacom doesn't work.

    Jason, how did you switch back? My tablet does not work either. All I can do for the moment is work on my laptop which has the old system.
    Thanks,
    Teresa
    I was almost certain that the new osx would be trouble as was Lion and after that Mountail Lion. So, instead of my usual hard drive clone, which I make with superduper, I made a second one just to be certain. After 10 minutes of Mavericks, I am happy back to snow leopard.
    I really think that it is the most developed, glitch free operating system. If it wasn't for all these money thirsty companies stopping the support of the previous op. systems perhaps we could stop at Snow leopard. What more to ask. Even aesthetically osx 10.9 is much worse that snow leopard.
    Anyway, long answer. sorry. It is a good habit to clone your HD once in a while.
    p.s. my only reason for wanting to upgrade is because Lightroom stopped support but I am still doing my work with the previous versions. I guess people will allways think that if they have the newest, biggest, baddest version of a software will make them better in what they do..or in who they are, really.

  • Remote does not work correctly after update

    Hello,
    the subject explain it already:
    After upgrading to 2.3 the apple remote does not work correctly anymore:
    I need to push the buttons twice, and than atv is only reacting sometimes.
    Any ideas?

    Frank

    Same problem here. First, I thought it was the Apple remote's battery. I replaced that and the problem persisted. I then used my digital video camera to verify that the remote was actually transmitting infrared, it was. In frustration, I tapped the buttons rapidly while pointing at the Apple TV. The Apple TV responded. The next button press it failed to respond. I tapped rapidly again and it finally responded. After many many rapid presses, while pointing directly at the Apple TV, it finally began responding to all presses. Once I'd regained control (I thought) I unpaired and re-paired the remote. Everything continued to work. At that time I also saw that I could "learn" another remote. So, I set up my Samsung TV remote. Sweet. Until the Apple TV went into screensaver mode again and I had to go through the same rapid button press sequence... with either the Apple remote or my learned Samsung remote. Conclusion, since the Apple TV will become fully responsive after the rapid button press sequence, it is certainly a software related problem.

  • IPad 3 not working correctly after update

    Not able to access the "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" in "Settings". Does not go to the screen. Freezes the "Settings" screen. Forced quit the Settings app.
    Not able to make changes in the "iCloud" in Settings. The circle spins endlessly with no results.
