![]() But there was no video acceleration so my VMware VMs didn't run as well. Changing the driver fixed those problems and I still had my desktop effects. Several weeks ago I used PCC to go from the fglrx driver to the ati driver because of problems I was having with Skype and other stuff. If the answer to #1 is after, were you using the fglrx driver or the ati/radeon driver when you installed the new kernel? Did you update to xorg 1.18 before or after installing the newest kernel?Ģ. I have some more questions if you would be so kind:ġ. ![]() if you were using the ati/radeon driver or the fglrx driver if you had updated to xorg 1.18 or if you still had 1.17Ģ. I'm taking every possible care to keep it working, and avoiding messing with video config again, because I spent 8 traumatic days trying to keep up-to-date without losing my video acceleration.Ĭan you explain what do you interpret from my inxi -F?ġ. However what they're doing in my system or how they're working I don't know. And it display the current xorg version as 1.18.4. All that long list of x11 updates were installed today.

In both Catalyst always caused more artifacts than linux native drivers.) Before having the a-10 with r7 series I had a 5xxx card series. (Advice: If you aren't a heavy gamer, video producer etc and don't need the bells and whistles of an amd proprietary driver don't install it. At the option Hardware accelerated decoding I chose disable. So I went to vlc / tools (menu) / preferences / input codecs. ![]() It seems that vlc trying to use the hardware acceleration driver is causing some incompatibility. I read in amd site that new drivers have some issues with vlc. Now I chose opengl 3.1 and all effects are working: cube, woobling etc.ġ0 - VLC was still terrible. (Probably the step 5 above forced kde to choose xrender and disable some video effects). I accepted without thinking twice.ĩ - I went to kde's configure your desktop / desktop effects / advanced (tab). After much persistence here's what seem to be working for me, at least, by now.ġ - With my pc exactly the way it was before xorg 1.18 Ģ - I Installed the newest kernel version, now 4.6.5 ģ - Rebooted to let the system create kernel modules Ĥ - Before any shut down or restart entered konqueror super user, went to etc/X11 and deleted with shift+delete the nf file ĥ - Rebooted immediately and I had no nf and no configuration of video card or monitor size Ħ - Went to Configure your computer / Hardware / Set up a graphical card ħ - Accepted the suggested option (Radeon 6400 and others), in the next window accepted what came checked or unchecked and in the monitor configuration window I selectd Plug and play W1943 Ĩ - Finally it gave me a list of configurations, recognizing some model of graphic card and written hardware acceleration: yes.
