ATI catalyst: No supported AMD display adapters were found

beachcoder · 2013-11-05 11:32:34

Hello out there!

To run Steam on my Thinkpad T400 with switchable Intel/ATI graphics card, I wanted to install the proprietary ATI driver. In the past, this already worked, but since I freshly re-installed my system, it doesn't want to work.

I've unintalled xf86-video-ati and blacklisted radeon as stated in the wiki. Then I installed catalyst, catalyst-utils and lib32-catalyst-utils.

This is what my Xorg returns after failing to start right after reboot.

$ lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RV620/M82 [Mobility Radeon HD 3450/3470]

aticonfig also regrets to work:

$ aticonfig  --initial --force

So does anyone know what is the problem here?

I'm also having a general question to catalyst: Does catalyst work fine with xrandr to run a two-monitor-configuration, or are there problems?

Thanks!

It would seem that your trying to run the 13.4 catalyst. Your card is not supported. You will have try the 13.1 legacy catalyst. Notice that I said 'try.'

If you are using Vi0L0's repositories, you will want to run the catalyst-hd234k instead of catalyst stable, downgrade X to match it and then try to get something like powerXpress working.
