Is it possible to get ATI video drivers working with 11.2 M8 so I can use compiz/desktop effects? If so, where do I get the driver from?
It depends of the model of Your ATI video card. If the model is <2400, the latest driver You can use, is Catalyst 9.3. If the model video card is >2400, You can use the latest driver, but for example for 9.8, it need a few retouching of a source file: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=535216#c6 After a install atempt with sh ati-driver-installer-9-8-x86.x86_64.run, to recreate the files in /lib/modules/fglrx, I removed the if rutine related to "p = find_task_by_vpid(pid);" The source file to edit is: /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/firegl_public.c deletting the if routine "p = find_task_by_vpid(pid);" they was about four lines, and remaked the kernel module with /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod # ./make.sh And later called: /lib/modules/fglrx # ./make_install.sh I try to load the module: modprobe fglrx I got no errors. Then I configured the driver with the aticonfig command.
