Backtrack 5- ATI Drivers

[Aachman]

I just installed KDE back May 64 bit (clean install) and the first, update the drivers from ATI. I go to the ATI driver download site, downloaded the 64 bit drivers intended for Linux installed .install, reboot. Bam does not support OpenGL, etc lagging PC everything had to disable all effects and is now running what some still believe this is a mistake. Any ideas for a solution? First (before installing the drivers) that was working great. So think then reinstall it again.

Not a good idea to run. Run. You need to use the. Run to generate a. Deb with one for the module fglrx. You can run this on your TTY. / * Run listpkg can see all the distributions can generate packets and using this: Execute - DISTRIBUTION buildpkg - here is the name of the distribution of your system, you will see that the above command. You may want to see the help: run - help. For module has generated. And fglrx installed all the files. Deb need. Then all desktop effects can be applied.

Ok, I had this problem too, and I fix it. I was using this issue as my main source, so hopefully this will help:
1. Clean installation.
2. boot into recovery mode, the drop in the root shell with the network, and startx (do not forget the first. "kde rm / cache * / * kcache")
3. prepare-kernel-sources cd / usr / src / linux; cp-rf include / generated / * include / linux /
4. Driver ati
5. Run the installer wizard.
6. aticonfig
