    Re: AMD/Intel Hybrid Graphics works !

    After a frusturating two days trying to figure this problem out and being unable to install Catalyst because it kept detecting a previous fglrx driver when I had already removed and purged it I decided to reformat (it was a new install anyway) and start from scratch. Before even installing a driver I followed the instructions to install the sna driver and then I installed the latest catalyst and everything now works. The only thing is that I have to run Unity 2D when on the integrated chip. I can definitely live with this as long as it solves my overheating issue.

    I have an hp dv6-6023TX with i5-2410m intel HD3000 and AMD Radeon HD 6700M Series.
    I screwed around for a looong time with the catalyst driver.
    My experience is that it is buggy and that I didn't need all that performance.
    I just wanted to get rid of the overheating and the fans running fast.
    Now I just use the intel HD3000. It runs really cool (fan just running @51celsius).
    As far as I can tell everything seem to work as it should (effects hd videos no artifacts).
    I can get about 5-6hours battery time (usually about 12-18watts consumption, the lowest I got it was 9.4watts)
    Anyway I suggest you give this a go: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1917897

    i have bastardised a script that allows you to switch between integrated and discrete, if you want to use the discrete for gaming.

    good luck

    Is there a benefit to doing this as opposed to just running the Integrated Chip with Catalyst? I really have no need for the discrete chip. Any gaming or heavy duty computing I do on my powerful desktop. I just use this laptop to develop and get a little work done.

    Re: AMD/Intel Hybrid Graphics works !

    I posted this in another thread and I don't like posting multiple times, but I hit the wrong prefix, so I don't know if it is getting the right people to see, so I thought I would post it here to see if anyone can help because it seems like I am getting somewhere. (warning wall of text inc)

    After failing to get my discreet GPU working in ubuntu 11.10 I decided to install 12.04 to see if it was working and I believe I am getting somewhere with it.

    I installed the fglrx drivers through jockey and ran
    Code:
    aticonfig  --initial -f
    However it came up with this powerXpress error:

    Code:
    PowerXpress error: Cannot stat '/usr/lib64/fglrx': No such file or directory
    Failed to initialize libglx for discrete GPU
    I however ignored this and rebooted, and rather than completely failing to boot it boots to low graphics mode (which is progress) but I cannot configure my graphics adapter and screen,

    Here are my xorg.conf and my xorg.0.log files:

    Code:

    Re: AMD/Intel Hybrid Graphics works !

    Hi people! I'm trying to get my new notebook working. I have a Intel hd3000 + amd radeon 6750M and I installed ubuntu precise. I added sarvatt ppa (xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.18) than I tried installing ati driver. Here is the problem, because with jokey-gtk I can install only the non-post-release driver,if I try installing the post release version it creashes (I found the bug also in launchpad). I tried compiling the driver downloaded from amd site, but when I try to install them through dpkg I give dependency error referred to the other packages I want to install.
    Then I tried installing fglrx-updates through synaptic and terminal. I can install the driver, give the aticonfig --install -f command but when I reboot (without any switch) a window appear saying me that ubuntu is running in low-graphic mode. After reconfiguring lightdm starts again.
    Furthermore I can't get Catalyst Control Center working. Any suggestion for the ati driver installation?

    Its what we are trying to work out right now, from what I have seen even the Linux gurus are having problems with Intel/ATI hybrid graphics.

    Re: AMD/Intel Hybrid Graphics works !

    I can confirm that following these instructions I was able to get Hybrid graphics on my Sony S VPCSA! Excellent! Of course, ATI graphics card gobbles up over TWICE the power than the integrated (~24-26k mW vs ~8-12k mW.)

    I was able to follow the same procedure on Linux Mint and got very good results, in fact faster and smoother than those that I got in Ubuntu 12.04 (which, granted is in Beta.)

    One problem I notice, at least with my linux Mint build (haven't confirmed on Ubuntu 12.04) if I try to switch to integrated graphics and restart X, it logs in fine, but doesn't bring up my gnome 3 panels, it seems something hangs up around then. I change back to dedicated and restart and it works fine again :-\.

    delsus: Not sure if you're still having this problem... I had a very similar problem. I had to follow Alexislavie's post on installing the newest drivers here: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubu...allation_Guide after installing the PPAs and that seemed to work.
