Remove "AMD testing use only" script

[ubunet]

There's simpler method. You only need to "sign" your drivers:

sudo gedit /etc/ati/signature

(or other editor, e.g. kate in kubuntu)

Delete "UNSIGNED" and paste this code:

Reboot and everything works

+1! Works for me.

Here's how to do the safer signature replacer with a oneliner:

sed -i "s/^UNSIGNED/9777c589791007f4aeef06c922ad54a2:ae59f5b9572136d99fdd36f0109d358fa643f2bd4a2644d9efbb4fe91a9f6590a145:f612f0b01f2565cd9bd834f8119b309bae11a1ed4a2661c49fdf3fad11986cc4f641f1ba1f2265909a8e34ff1699309bf211a7eb4d7662cd9f8e3faf14986d92f646f1bc/g" /etc/ati/signature

I'll also attach a more advanced script that guides you through the process. It essentially does the same thing.

Thanks! used this command with 13.04B2 (AMD64) and AMD13.3B3 and works great! Anyone else wanting to use Raring and get decent frame rates this seems to be the best way to go.

Does this work in 13.04? I tried to perform this, and got "Downloads/script.sh" is an unknown command.

[mentorious]

Are you sure that command was correct?

cd ~/Download

and then

chmod a+x script.sh && ./script.sh

This script worked perfectly for me. All other methods I tried, including an alternative script from Kano http://phoronix.com/forums/showthrea...ware-watermark, sinature signing ... etc failed. The reason I really posted this however is because the script also fixed another really annoying problem for me. Everytime I rebooted, my graphics card would revert to some default settings, including a ridiculously low refresh rate of 24 Hz! My screen would actually flicker, which I'd never even seen before with an LCD. This meant after every reboot, I'd have to go to the catalyst control center and change my settings. Annoying. This problem is now gone along with the watermark. Thanks HomerHomer!
