I am planning on doing a fresh install of Ubuntu and want to know what is the correct way to install ATI Catalyst Video Driver? There are multiple valid answers for this question spanning over several versions of Ubuntu. For your convenience an index of each below: Installing the lastest ATI/AMD driver Download the appropriate driver for your machine here from the AMD/ATI Website and then enter the following into the terminal (remember to navigate to where you extracted the driver to beforehand and make sure no other .run files exist in that folder): IMPORTANT NOTE: Be aware that when you manually install fglrx, this can subtly break your system, since the packaging system isn't made aware of your changes. The Launchpad developers get many bug reports from users who do this and then later discover after a few upgrades that their system starts behaving weird because of those fglrx remnants. Latest proprietary AMD Catalyst driver version 12.9 cannot be used with Ubuntu 12.10 If you have a AMD Radeon HD 2xxx-4xxx series card. Drivers for these cards are now available in a separate branch called legacy series. Unfortunately these legacy drivers (version 12.6) have not been updated to work with Ubuntu 12.10. Ubuntu 12.10 comes with xorg 1.13 while these drivers have support for older xorg 1.12. So if you want to install these drivers in Ubuntu 12.10, you have to downgrade to xorg 1.12. Installing the ATI Catalyst Drivers for 13.04 These instructions will install Catalyst v13.4, in order to see what is the latest available driver visit the Official AMD Website Instructions Check your card Only RadeonHD cards are supported by Catalyst drivers. To know which card is installed in your system type the following command in a terminal: There is yet another approach. We maintain a PPA called x-updates which provides updated drivers for stable releases. https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates?field.series_filter=precise This is really the best way to update drivers since: a) it's a lot easier to install (just flip on a ppa and upgrade), b) it won't break your system when you upgrade , c) you can still file bug reports and expect support from Ubuntu. Unfortunately, as you can see, we don't have -fglrx in there for precise, and the versions we have for past releases are a bit dated themselves. This is because the official maintainers like me tend to be laz...ahem busy with the development release and/or bugfixing for the LTS, so don't often get to updating this PPA. But, we are very encouraging and supportive of community members to help us with maintaining this PPA. We have the procedure all documented to the degree that it's largely push button; if you can understand and perform the steps described in the other answers here, and you know how to use PPAs, and have an ATI system you can test your packages on, you already have the necessary skills. It's just a matter of getting to know you so we can trust you. We'll be happy to coach and mentor you, all you need to bring is care and dedication. Of course, if you are only interested in updating your own machine, this all probably sounds like a lot of extra effort. However, it only requires one volunteer to take on this duty and then it simplifies life for everyone. Check out how many views this question has gotten so far - over 10,000. So one volunteer here can make a humongous difference.','url':'http://askubuntu.com/questions/124292/what-is-the-correct-way-to-install-proprietary-ati-catalyst-video-drivers-fglrx','og_descr':'I am planning on doing a fresh install of Ubuntu and want to know what is the correct way to install ATI Catalyst Video Driver?
