Problem with ATI Radeon HD 7670M on Ubuntu 12.10
- by Aniket
I updated from Ubuntu 12.04 to 12.10 a couple of days back.
My machine is a Dell Inspiron 15R with a Radeon HD 7670M Graphic Driver.
When I was using 12.04, I was able to install the propriety driver using the notification you usually get. But after the upgrade, the graphic driver is not getting installed.
I am not getting the notification to install the driver
And I also tried to follow the steps given - What is the correct way to install ATI Catalyst Video Drivers (fglrx)?
I tried the legacy as well as the usual installation procedure
Both ways I failed and my graphics went to the fallback, disabling Unity
Note: My laptop is getting heated to 80 degrees and can shut down at any point. Please help.
