Problem graphics with ATI Radeon x1270 (RS690M) on Ubuntu 12.04
- by Giuseppe Della Corte
I'm Italian and so I apologize for my English!
I'm a beginner to Ubuntu and I tried it on my desktop PC and it's fantastic, fast and fun!
I decided to try it on my netbook Packard Bell DOT M/A and this is the configuration:
AMD Athlon L110 1.2GHz
2GB of RAM
ATI Radeon x1270 (RS690M)
150GB Hard Disk
I installed Ubuntu 12.04 with Wubi (dualboot Windows 7 + Ubuntu 12.04), because the netbook does not have a DVD player!
During the installation everything is OK, after it was installed I see mistakes in the graphical display!
I see objects that are seen in different colors and moving (buttons, mouse pointer, text bar ... etc ...)
At one point came not to see anything, such as this screenshot:
The drivers are open, that is already installed in Ubuntu.
Windows 7 video card runs fine, can run well Aero (transparent window effects), I can watch movies in HD and play some games with the Catalyst drivers from AMD.
Now I ask a favor, you can help me solve this problem?
Is there a fix for this driver or drivers different on the Internet?
Thanks for your attention, good bye!
