I have tried to upgrade from kernel 3.2.0-39 to kernel 3.4 (here (http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.4-precise/)) and after that installing fglrx drivers 13.1 (compatible up to kernel 3.5).
Here are the steps I followed:
Removing (purging) existing drivers
sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx fglrx_* fglrx-amdcccle* fglrx-dev*
rebooted
updated open drivers.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
rebooted
installed some dependencies and then tried to install fglrx drivers:
sudo sh amd-driver-installer-*.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/precise sudo dpkg -i *.deb
At this point the installation stuck at:
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.4.0-0304-generic
nothing happens and I have to stop installation and I need to use dpkg-reconfigure -a.
Can you tell me how install kernel and fglrx drivers in the correct way? Do I need to know anything else to do that?
Thanks
