| a8s0lut0 | Hello all! I would like to run the open source ATI driver (radeon/radeonhd) but it appears "vesa" is what xubuntu is running out of the box. | 15:07 |
| a8s0lut0 | I don't know how to make the change | 15:07 |
| a8s0lut0 | running 12.04, have a ATI 1900XTX (R500) | 15:08 |
| TheSheep | !ati | 15:09 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 15:09 |
| a8s0lut0 | haven't seen that resource yet thanks. what's the command to learn what driver i'm using? | 15:14 |
| a8s0lut0 | i used the compiz-check util @ forlong.blogage.de/article/pages/Compiz-Check which says vesa | 15:14 |
| a8s0lut0 | but when I run sudo lshw -C video it says "configuration: driver=radeon" | 15:15 |
| holstein | i think most proprietary drivers will put an xorg.conf in place | 15:15 |
