Re: Installing Catalyst from the official repository

According to https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AM … positories

Catalyst doesn't support xorg-server 1.14.

Seems you need to install/downgrade xorg-server 1.13 (there's a repo on the link) or wait till catalyst supports 1.14.

I am a nvidia user by the way, so i'm not pretty sure about what I just said smile

Re: Installing Catalyst from the official repository

Oks. Thanks. smile

I downgraded the xorg, xf86input, xf86-video ati   and installed catalyst, and dkms.

But i get a error installing catalyst

Creating symlink /var/lib/dkms/fglrx/13.1-2/source ->
                 /usr/src/fglrx-13.1-2

DKMS: add completed.
Error! echo
Your kernel headers for kernel 3.8.6-1-ARCH cannot be found at
/usr/lib/modules/3.8.6-1-ARCH/build or /usr/lib/modules/3.8.6-1-ARCH/source.
error: el comando falló al ejecutarse

It looks like i need to downgrade the Kernel to. But i don't have the linux-headers for that image anyways

Re: Installing Catalyst from the official repository

There is no need to downgrade the kernel but the headers have to be installed.
Next time please post the output of commands in English (LANG=C pacman -…).

Re: Installing Catalyst from the official repository

edit: pacman says something about old linux headers. That suggest downgrade the kernel and downgrade the linux headers.

Thats why i'm aswering about the old linux-headers 3.8.6-1...

Don't do that. I don't know what might happen, but I don't think its good.

After each kernel update you have to rebuild the fglrx module. You may try and use one of the tools listed in the wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AMD_Catalyst#Tools) to automate the process. Or you can simply reboot after taking care of any .pacnew files and then simply reinstall catalyst-dkms which rebuilds and loads the fglrx module for you, too.
