ATI\AMT Graphics Driver

Hb_Kai · 01-08-2009, 10:40 PM

I've just installed Ubuntu on a Toshiba Satellite L30-101 laptop and before installing it, I tried it out with the LiveCD and it worked when I tried it this way but it doesn't now.

My graphics driver isn't being downloaded off the internet when I use the Hardware Drivers window. When I click on Activate it opens a message box saying "Downloading and installing driver", stays on 0% for a couple seconds and then the message box goes.

What should I do about this?

Have you configured your interface to the net?

Yeah. I can use the internet, I done it everything in the same way as when I tested Ubuntu last night using the LiveCD,

Never mind. It's done it now, I left it alone for a little while and tried again.

What did you do exactly for your solution? LQ is a knowledge base, please always explain solutions so others can learn.

Oh, sorry. I gave up clicking Activate to try downloading and installing the driver, let it go for about 30 minutes, tried again and it done its job.

Weird. Thanks for the info.

Maybe it just wasn't in a loading kind of mood? haha
