It is utterly ridiculous that installing a driver on a "compatible" GPU is this hard. It is possible, right?
Couldn't I just add to hardware drivers or something and install it like that?
the file 'xorg.conf' doesn't exist on your system.
Running:
Code:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
or
Code:
sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe /etc/X11/xorg.conf
should restore it.

Also, note that there's an error in the first step; it should be :
'sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.original /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
otherwise you'll obliterate your xorg.conf.original.* with your current configuration which is probably not what you wanted.

What are you talking about?
