All AMD graphic drivers (HOW TO)

[snowmanwithahat]

Have you tried just doing....

apt-get install ati-driver

I have had far more luck using the nvidia drivers from the repo as opposed to doing it manually.... Are the ati drivers well kept for the BT4 repos? I haven't had a chance to try an ati card in my system in years....

Umm it depends on what model # you have. I have the hd 3200 radeon and when I run pyrit my computer shuts down. I remember reading that it's only compatible with the 4xxx models and up.


#########DON'T DO THIS############

apt-get install ati-driver

Don't forget pyrit thats the reason graphic card drivers are bit more important to some pentesters.

That must be this Cuda 2.0 everyone's talking about, right?.

This weekend I took the plunge and decided to learn more about desktop environments. I actually have compiz working on Xfce. If you stay clear of all the silly effects, you can produce with those slide-switchers and ring-switchers. I hate mice, and until I learned the hot-keys for compiz, some things were just painful.

Now I'm trying to duplicate those features in kde3. The cube thingy sucks up cpu cycles, the ring&slide switchers don't appear to use much of anything though, and seem to be a good thing.

So I just hadn't gone far enough. A little time spent working with what I thought were dubious features, has actually taught me how to operate windows without a mouse, and I'm now 100% faster at everything. Btw, whatever kbfx is, it's a boat anchor . . .

Now I'll see what I can do with Cuda . . .
