Thread: Trying to install ATI Driver (9.04)


hi, i'm running ubuntu 9.04 , trying install proprietary ati drivers documented here "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/binarydriverhowto/ati" in ubuntu documentation.

trying enable accelerated ati graphics driver in 'hardware drivers' (system->hardware drivers) shown have following problems when entering following commands in terminal window.

sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
sudo insmod /lib/modules/`uname -r`/volatile/fglrx.ko
which returns following:

russell@ubuntu-desktop:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
[sudo] password russell:
update-initramfs: generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-15-generic
russell@ubuntu-desktop:~$ sudo insmod /lib/modules/`uname -r`/volatile/fglrx.ko
insmod: can't read '/lib/modules/2.6.28-15-generic/volatile/fglrx.ko': no such file or directory
so don't know go here. have folder "/lib/modules/2.6.28-15-generic/volatile" present there no "fglrx.ko" file in folder.

have suggestions how overcome please.
