Since yesterday using hd234k repo:
error: failed retrieving file 'amdoverdrivectrl-1.2.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz' from catalyst.wirephire.com : The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found
I'm a bit confused. I have an hd4870 card. I'm on catalyst 13.1. Is this correct?
Why the person some posts above uses 12.6 with the same card?

Why the person some posts above uses 12.6 with the same card?
Because i don't to play wine games with catalyst 13.1 from catalyst-hd234 repo.

but fglrxinfo returns:
No display found(null)
Good, the log is clean now. What DE are you usiing? What GPU you have? Can you paste /etc/X11/xorg.conf (and ~/.xsession-errors if exists)?

Thanks, i will fix it later today.

I have just bought Radeon 7850. Now I want to use it for few tasks that need OpenCL (boost).
I have read here and there a lot of things and let me say: This sure ain't KISS.
It seems to me that man must go trough the quest of PITA before man can utilize the power of OpenCL! I hope I'm at least half way there.
Being user of FOSS drivers before this day was bliss...
So far I have downgraded my xorg-server to 1.13. I have also booted my machine more than enough.
I thought I had something wrong with my X configs... Logs say that all are ok... Because the nature of my problem I ran
aticonfig --acpi-services=off
and I thought I could handle it. No way. That didn't change anything.
Now the problem: X won't start. It just hangs, no bad lines on logs. X sits on one core utilizing it fully... for nothing.
I can kill X (with -9), but my monitors stay blank.
The exotic part: I have one old CRT with max resolution of 640x480, connected via VGA. CRT does not tell anything reasonable to my machine. It actually states that it can display 1080i resolution. I think this is just X server guessing things. It's -89 CRT, a RELIC almost. The other monitor is my TV connected via HDMI with max resolution on 720p but it tells X that it has better cababilities (also).
CRT is connected via DVI using VGA adapter.
Still I don't think X should freeze there.
ANY clues?

Hey, I am having this error after installing catalyst! Anyone also has? Cheers!

PLEASE NOTE:
For these drivers to work, you must install kernel modules.
Depending on your kernel, these module packages are named
catalyst-$kernel and stock kernel module is catalyst
OR simply use packages that provides auto re-compilation:
catalyst-hook
OR use catalyst-generator package to generate catalyst-{kernver}
packages
----------------------------------------------------------------
You can use the tool 'aticonfig' to generate an xorg.conf file.
--------------------- ^^^^^^^^^ --------------------------------
Add nomodeset to your kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst , ie.:
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-linux root=/dev/sda1 ro nomodeset
----------------------------------------------------------------
IMPORTANT:
fglrx was added into /etc/modules-load.d/catalyst.conf

atieventsd (needs acpid pkg) on systemd:
systemctl enable atieventsd
systemctl start atieventsd

@Zucca:
I would start with one display connected.
Tv could be better for the first run, you can specify it's resolution in same way i mentioned below. But before changing this check out how it will behave with clean aticonfig's generated xorg.conf.
As for crt : have you tried fighting with your crt via xorg.conf and some of it's options, like resolution, horizontal and vertical refresh etc?
In Screen Section you can precise resoultion, ie:
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1024x768_75.00"
EndSubSection
In Monitor Section you can precise refresh [but be carefull with it, you should paste your monitor' real values, info about that is often available in user's manual], ie:
HorizSync 31-101
VertRefresh 60-160
@Ephexeve:
thanks for the info! I will fix it after getting back home
edit: should be fine
btw meanwhile AMD has updated 13.1, changed files are in /etc/ati/:
- amdpcsdb.default
- control
- signature
and so, also i have updated AUR's catalyst-total* packages and [catalyst-stable] repo's utils*

Nope. Same result.
As I thought... X doesn't ever start wm there. So it gets stuck on infinite loop (100% usage on one core) after reading xorg.conf but before starting any other programs such as wm.
I have to kill X with -9 since normal -15 won't help. And even after that my monitors are blank. TV actually says that it does not receive any signal.
I strongly believe, that it's not the configs that are creating the mess here...

I can prepare such update, maybe later today i will find time.

Vi0L0 thanks. now everything is well

So... Stupid mistakes are hard to find when you don't get proper error output (ie. nothing). So I finally found out what was it freezing my X.
Radeon module. Found it by grepping lsmod. So. Simple solution:
modprobe.blacklist=radeon
to kernel parameters on my bootloader config.
Problem solved! Waiting another to come... Propably something OpenCL related. Hopefully it goes by first shot.

Well this bug is quite the pain in the ass. This is the second time X has completely crashed while minimizing and/or restoring konsole. Really hard to work like this.....here is the info from .xsessions-errors if anyone is having the problem. This only happens with konsole.

Thanks Vi0L0, Everything is working great Thanks for the maintenance, the Catalyst-Hook worked perfect.
Archlinx + DWM I love Wingo-WM Bring it back!!

As of the latest catalyst-test, the atiwatermark.sh file (to remove the unsupported hardware watermark) is now causing X to fail.
I shouldn't have the unsupported hardware watermark anyway given my card is a 5470 but I've always had to use this script to remove it.

I've some problems when i try to switch to internal VGA.
System freezes before login manager(it happens with every login manager). I can't go graphical... can anyone help me?
I can use internal only with 13.2beta...
Offline
Maybe 13.3 beta 3 will work better for you? I've just updated catalyst-test@AUR and [catalyst] repo.

Hey Vi0l0, I appreciate your Work very much!
I have a question though: Would you make your pkgbuilds for the packages of the backported xorg-113 in your repo available for us?
I would be really grateful, because i'd like to compile them by myself
Offline
Packages in xorg113 are just copy-pasted from [extra] repo.
I can give you a pkgbuilds of the packages from abs snapshot that i have taken some time ago, xorg-server is in version 1.13.2.901, so kinda close, just update version and md5 sum and you are ready to compile.

Catalyst can't get along with xorg-server 1.14. You have to keep xorg 1.13.
If you can't sit by a cozy fire with your code in hand enjoying its simplicity and clarity, it needs more work. --Carlos Torres

Is there a way to "pin" packages in Arch, like in Debian?
Offline
You know, keep one package at a certain version, but upgrade the rest of the system?
I googled, but I didn't see anything.

--ignore <package>

Thanks!
Doing "pacman -Syu --ignore xorg-server --ignore xf86-input-evdev" let me upgrade.
Guess I'll have to keep doing that for as long as I keep using the catalyst driver. Drag.

I'm about to give catalyst-test a shot....hopefully it will fix my xorg crash problem :\

It would be easier to just enable the xorg113 repo using the directions here:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ca … xorg113.5D
Make sure to put it before the other repos in pacman.conf so it won't try to upgrade when it pacman sees a newer version.

Cool. Only thing is, it gives this error:
error: database 'xorg113' is not valid (invalid or corrupted database (PGP signature))

Trying clearing cache and syncing again I suppose. I got that when I tried a few minutes ago when I added it before updating.
sudo pacman -Scc
sudo pacman -Syy
