installing driver on linux????


HI all,

I just installed RH 9.0. But it doesn't have the driver for ATI 9800 pro. So I downloaded "fglrx-glc22-4.1.0-2.9.13.i586.rpm" as recommended. But I don't know how to install the driver on linux. Can someone help.....?

Thank you for your time

for help on installing RPM's in general try searching thyis site and also places like the RUTE guide in my signature. for specific post install instructions, refer back to the site you got it from.

I've just gone to that Rute site, and tried to download the PDF - it seems to be a bad link....

Open a terminal window.
If you did not login as root, type:
Code:
su -
To install the RPM, go to the directory in which you saved the RPM and type:
Code:
rpm -ivh fglrx-glc22-4.1.0-2.9.13.i586.rpm
