Emiliano, thank you for providing the requested information. Regarding your comments https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1068411/comments/5 : >"I tried the workaround already."
If you are having a problem with the binary you downloaded directly from the website, you would want to contact AMD directly as per their website link http://www.amd.com/us/LinuxCrewSurvey . As well, you are welcome to file a bug on the Unofficial AMD Linux bugzilla http://ati.cchtml.com/ . If you do file a report, please paste the link to this report. >"Tried the "Using the Ubuntu repositories"" We knew this already. >"(My graphic card support was droped after 12.4)" AMD made no mention of how your graphics card is no longer supported. As mentioned verbatim on their website http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/legacy/Pages/legacy-radeon_linux.aspx : "AMD has moved to the AMD Radeon™ HD 4000, AMD Radeon HD 3000, and AMD Radeon HD 2000 Series new driver support model. These updates will focus on resolving application specific issues and critical updates." Not being able to install the driver would be considered a crtical issue. As well, as a potential WORKAROUND, does one of the prior driver versions work for you http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/previous/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx ? ** Changed in: fglrx-installer (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1068411 Title: 1002:9712 fglrx driver doesn't recognize my ATI RS880M Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series Status in “fglrx-installer” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When the installation of 12.10 finished and restarted, my Ubuntu installation didn't show up my Desktop.
