I've now tried so many times and messed up almost as many so I feel like I have to ask.
I'm trying to install the proprietary ATI driver version 8.632 on Ubuntu Jaunty 64 using a custom real time kernel (2.6.29.6-rt23). I have now been able to install it, but at startup it says something like "DKMS auto installation ... fglrx [fail]" and flgrx info and glxinfo both give the same error message:
X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 135 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
Serial number of failed request: 14
Current serial number in output stream: 14
Scrolling webpages and moving windows is choppy. Starting Savage 2 (which is what I've choosen for testing the drivers gives almost the same error as above:
X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 135 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
Serial number of failed request: 23
Current serial number in output stream: 23
When I try to start my other kernels now (2.6.28-14-generic and 2.6.28-11-generic) all I get is a black screen which locks and I have to manually shutdown the computer.
My graphics card is the ATI Radeon Mobility HD 4570 on a Dell Studio 1555 (laptop).
