Xbuntu driver issue for ATI Sapphire R9 280x
Hi guys,
I'm in desperate need of help. I am trying to install the drivers for my ATI Sapphire R9 280x onto Xbuntu to use as a litecoin rig and am having major issues installing the drivers. I need assistance urgently and am willing to pay a generous BTC donation or cash donation to anyone who is genuinely interested in assisting. |

The R9 280x is a fairly new videocard that does not work reliably with any of the drivers in Ubuntu's repositories. You will need to use the latest Beta driver from AMD's website (yes, AMD, this is not an ATI card) to get that running, but even with that driver support from AMD for this card on Linux is sub-par.
