hi ubuntu forums,
I have just come back to ubuntu after my windows 7 system broke down on me. Won't be going back there in a hurry!
So now i've installed ubuntu 11.10 and kde-standard. I dual boot with xp. So impressive, everything worked out of the box..sound, wifi the lot. I have an Acer Aspire 5552, 4gb ram, AMD x3 processor.
My Q is, Can you guys explain which ATI driver I should be installing here? The propitiatory ones in Jockey, or the catalyst's from ATI's website? or keep the default, open source drivers? I've had a search on the forum and found a right mix of advice!
I've heard a lot of problems with Gnome 3 and drivers, does this effect Unity and KDE 4.7.x and ATI gfx cards?
Also, something about the FAN's not being controlled properly on the gfx card in one of the drivers?
Hope u guys can clear this up for me.
Kind regards,
