Re: ATI not saving settings
I tried the following and rebooted...same:
sudo aticonfig --initial -f
sudo aticonfig --set-pcs-str="DDX,EnableRandR12,FALSE"
sudo aticonfig --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf --tls=1
xorg is not changing on reboot but the display is not matching.
Re: ATI not saving settings
I ended up re-installing from scratch.
This worked for me:
Install packages:
sudo apt-get install build-essential cdbs fakeroot dh-make debhelper debconf libstdc++6 dkms libqtgui4 wget execstack libelfg0 dh-modaliases
Since I'm on 64-bit, I had to add to that:
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
Download the latest Catalyst package:
cd ~/; mkdir catalyst11.11; cd catalyst11.11
wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/at...x86.x86_64.run
Create the deb packages
sh ./ati-driver-installer-11-11-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/oneiric
Install the deb packages
sudo apt-get remove fglrx
sudo dpkg -i fglrx*.deb
Create basic aticonfig xorg file
sudo aticonfig --initial -f
Set PCS:
sudo aticonfig --set-pcs-str="DDX,EnableRandR12,FALSE"
Restart
Opened amdcccle with sudo and configured to dual screen (proceeded to get kicked out and log back in).
sudo service lightdm restart
At this point, go to the Displays option in ubuntu (dropdown from top-right screen) and uncheck mirror and set the desktop to span the two monitors.
