I have two GPU's in my laptop, both of which are AMD.
Whenever I use the Catalyst Control Centre to change the GPU, nothing changes after reboot. In fact, when I do the fglrxinfo
command the terminal only reports seeing one GPU, the integrated one (HD 4250).
The dedicated one (Mobility HD5470) goes unnoticed and I can't seem to use that GPU at all. I really don't want to use the Open Source drivers because I've found there generally slower than the proprietary, but the proprietary doesn't seem to work either.
Any help is appreciated.
