This also happens to me but it's not just a Linux problem. I also experience it with both firefox and chrome on MacOSX.

I just tried those instructions and they don't quite work.

the script they tell you download and run does not work because the directory structure is different with 12.04. I changed the script a...

Trying to install the drivers from the ATI

cd ~/; mkdir catalyst11.8; cd catalyst11.8/
$ wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/ati-driver-installer-11-8-x86.x86_64.run

11.04 with ATI Radeon HD 5740.

The open source drivers with unity cook the CPU and the fans are on high all the time. The proprietary drivers run much cooler but compiz + the "classic" desktop is...

I would like to move the unity launcher to the secondary monitor when it's plugged in. When it's not plugged in it should of course be on the laptop screen.

Also any new windows should be opening...

Hey All.

Something very strange happened to me and I am hoping somebody can help me with getting my laptop back in order.

I have a Asus K42jr with a ATI Mobility Radeon 5470 on it. I had the...

I am having similar problems although not as bad (seems to reconnect by itself). It's annoying as hell and wasn't happening in lucid.

Something is clearly wrong here and I hope somebody is aware...

I am getting the exact same problem.

The instructions on the page you linked to do not work for building the packages.

You get the following error.

dpkg-shlibdeps: error: no dependency information found for...

This was solved by completely removing alsa and re-installing it.

sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils

sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils...

Hey all.

I was having some problems with my sound such as the headphones not working and the built in mic not working so I put in the PPA http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa/ubuntu to...

I don't think they use the same versioning standard. The ATI web site says they are at 10.6. ATI catalyst I have says 8.73.

That's very far behind considering this is lucid.

Does that driver update itself automatically and is there a way to check the version of it?

I notice that the ATI site has a driver date of 6/16/10 and so it's very new. I hope ubuntu updates...

I would avoid this card until AMD or Ubuntu provides better drivers.

What is the probability of these patches being applied to the official kernel?

I installed the open sourced drivers and they mostly work. I can't get the equivalent of "twinview" for some reason.

The worst thing about the open sourced drivers is the need to reboot your...

Where did you find the ati mobility radeon 5470 drivers? They only list the 4000 series under mobility section.

Mine never goes below 68. Sometimes it's high as 76.

I have searched the forums and there are a few old posts about nvidia GPUs running hot but nothing I have tried so far has solved my problem.

The platform is a dell vostro 1710. The GPU is a...

Sorry no.

Nobody has suggested anything useful so I am stuck at 100 Mbit.

Doesn't seem likely. They do work.

When I originally installed the software there was a hundred megabit switch so I suspect that's where the cards got configured.

How do I tell the cards to...

The switch is ultimately connected to a firewall which is connected to the internet.

Most of the traffic on the network is between machines though and that's what I am mostly concerned about. I...

I have two servers. Both of them are running in a remote location. Both of them are Dell servers. Both of them have Broadcom NetXteme cards (different models) and both of them are plugged into the...

I have no idea what maximumize does. As far as I can see it doesn't seem to do anything useful at all.

Surely there is a way to tile your windows.
