Installing Catalyst 11.6 in Ubuntu 11.04

[drawoc]

thanks.

ran that, and then tried to reinstall and got this in my /usr/share/ati/fglrx-install.log:

Code:

dh_installdocs -pfglrx debian/AUTHORS
dh_installinit -pfglrx --name="atieventsd" --no-start --update-rcd-params="defaults 31"
Duplicate specification "O=s" for option "O"
#remove executable bits from stack
dh_install -pfglrx-amdcccle
execstack -c debian/fglrx-amdcccle/usr/lib/fglrx/bin/amdcccle
make: execstack: Command not found
make: *** [binary-arch] Error 127
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2
[Error] Generate Package - error generating package : Ubuntu/natty

Install the package execstack.

It might give you "make: SOMETHING: Command not found" again, where SOMETHING is any command name. From now on, just search the package contents for whatever "SOMETHING" is on http://packages.ubuntu.com/. It will give you a package name to install. If it gives you more than one result choose the one that has "SOMETHING" located in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin.

well it seems that i have had some success.

this is the log generated on my last attempt to install 11.6

Code:

Package /home/chip/fglrx_8.861-0ubuntu1_i386.deb has been successfully generated
Package /home/chip/fglrx-dev_8.861-0ubuntu1_i386.deb has been successfully generated
Package /home/chip/fglrx-amdcccle_8.861-0ubuntu1_i386.deb has been successfully generated

however, when i try to run: sudo aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=all

i get:

Code:

sudo: aticonfig: command not found

Mine seems to get stuck on Postprocessing Dispaly and OpenCL drivers.

Also, complete noob question, but is there a shortcut for running term?
