Hast du es mal mit dem Handbuch versucht? http://manual.siduction.org/de/gpu-de.htm#ati-3d
Translation: Did you ever try pressing the power button? :roll:
I basically recited instructions from the manual in my first post. I thoroughly read the manual prior to install, including adding the correct sources for special hardware in "live" mode prior to "install to disk". After discovering that siduction booted into command line, I followed the instructions in the manual under "ATI/AMD 3D Drivers". The easy fix,
apt-get install firmware-linux-nonfree,
did not result in any improvement. Again, only command line was available.
I searched the web for a quick fix and found one:
apt-get install fglrx-driver
aticonfig --initial
I can live with the slow graphics; It is basically a cosmetic issue since I don't do any gaming or graphics/video processing. I am just hoping that someone has been down this road already and has worked out all of the details. Otherwise, I will work them out when I have time.
If someone happens to find that this wheel has already been invented, please post here. Thanks.
If I decide to build the driver (or use a generously donated build script), do I need to remove/undo the fglrx-driver? Anything else I need to undo before proceeding with the build?
