How to install Radeon 5400 support on Dell Inspiron 1764? Dec 7th 2012, 22:42 Hello, at https://forums.opensuse.org/english/...ml#post2509330 I have posted the boot-problem I currently have. Since I think it is the defect graphics-card driver, I thought I post here a question how to (finally) install proper Radeon 5400 support (I guess if I manage that, then the boot-failure should go away). Until now I survived with the driver xorg-x11-driver-video-radeonhd - Driver for AMD GPG (ATI) r5xx/r6xx Chipsets which partially worked, but there were permanent crashes, and also glxgears runs very slowly. I never managed to install the driver amd-driver-installer-12-4-x86.x86_64.run Installation always yields > cat /usr/share/ati/fglrx-install.log Uninstalling any previously installed drivers. Unloading radeon module... ERROR: Module radeon is in use Unloading drm module... ERROR: Module drm is in use by radeon,ttm,drm_kms_helper [Message] Kernel Module : Trying to install a precompiled kernel module. [Message] Kernel Module : Precompiled kernel module version mismatched. [Error] Kernel Module : Kernel module build environment not found - please consult readme. [Reboot] Kernel Module : mkinitrd I'm not aware of the "README". Why does the re-installed xorg-driver not work anymore? Any clue what to do? Or could I get the ati-driver finally to work? Best Oliver
