Hello all, I'm trying out Ubuntu again and I'm having trouble with the ATI drivers. I've tried installing them from the repository, from EnvyNG, and from ATI directly, but whenever I install the driver on the next boot I get errors that no display is available, or that Xserver couldn't find the PCI device.
I don't have the computer with me unfortunately, but I will post the xorg.conf and any errors when I get home.
Does anyone know what's going on? I'm on 8.10 and ATI's 9.1 or the older driver from the repository.
System:
Core2Quad 4.0GHz
8GB PC1066
4TB HD
ATI Radeon 4870
ATI Radeon 3650
OCZ 700w PSU
Could it be because I run a 4 monitor setup with 2 cards? Banging my head against the wall on this one, and I'm pretty Linux rusty atm. Thanks for any insight you can offer!
