The AMD Catalyst installer for Linux makes installing the AMD Catalyst proprietary
driver a much simpler and user friendly experience. The AMD Catalyst installer provides
two modes of installation. The Install Driver option provides a simple driver installation
process, and the Generate Distribution Specific Driver Package provides a simple way
to generate a package for your distribution.
This release note provides information on the following:
- Compatible Operating Systems
- Minimum System Requirements
- System Recommendations
- Uninstalling the AMD Catalyst Proprietary Driver
- Install Driver Option
- Driver Update Notification
- Linux Feedback Program
Note: To successfully install the AMD Catalyst proprietary driver,
you should uninstall any third party graphics driver such as
NVIDIA proprietary graphics driver for Linux currently on your
system.
Note: AMD recommends that you create a central location for your
AMD Catalyst proprietary driver downloads.
Note: AMD recommends you uninstall the AMD Catalyst
proprietary driver for Linux before installing a newer version.
Compatible Operating Systems
The latest version of the AMD Catalyst proprietary driver is designed to support the
following Linux distributions:
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux suite
- Novell/SuSE product suite
- Ubuntu
Note: The AMD Catalyst driver for Linux may install on a number of
other Linux distributions. Refer to the Package Generation
installation instructions for more information.
Note: AMD contributed packaging scripts to help the creation of
other packages, but does not test or verify these. Currently Red Hat
Enterprise Linux suite and Novell/SuSE product suite support Linux
distributions. Please contact Red Hat and Novell/SuSE directly with
questions regarding their available support.
Note: AMD Events Daemon is not installed in /etc/init.d if using the
Automatic Driver Installation Option. To install the Events Daemon
for Red Hat and SuSE, use the Generate Distribution Specific Driver
Package option to create packages for LGD installation. If there are
no available packages for your distribution that install scripts for the
daemon, refer to their respective user documentation on inserting and
use of services/daemons. Examples scripts can be located in the
default directory of "/usr/share/doc/ati/examples" after Automatic
Driver Installation Option installation.
Minimum System Requirements
Before attempting to install the AMD Catalyst proprietary driver, the following software
must be installed:
- XOrg 6.9, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5 or 7.6
- Linux kernel 2.6 or above
- glibc version 2.2 or 2.3
- POSIX Shared Memory (/dev/shm) support is required for 3D applications
Note: If a Linux 2.6.11 or newer kernel was built with
CONFIG_AGP enabled, the kernel AGP frontend is required to load
the fglrx kernel module. To identify whether your kernel was built
with CONFIG_AGP enabled, look for CONFIG_AGP=y in the
kernel config file, or if the 'agpgart' module is loaded.
System Recommendations
For optimal performance and ease of use, the following are available:
- Kernel module build environment
o Kernel source code include either the Kernel Source or Kernel Headers packages
- The RPM utility should be installed and configured correctly on your system, if you
intend to install via RPM packages
The following packages must be installed in order for the AMD Catalyst driver for Linux
to install and work optimally:
- XFree86-Mesa-libGL
- libstdc++
- libgcc
- XFree86-libs
- fontconfig
- freetype
- zlib
- gcc
