I was afraid of this...
 
The ati_8-x driver in the repo may not be the right one for your card. There used to be two drivers in the repo, one for the older cards like your former 9800 and one for the newer HD cards. Looks like we'll have to uninstall the repo driver and install the one from AMD's website. The key I've found to a proper install is to do it in safe mode. The driver cannot install properly with the X window system running.

It's very late where I am so lets take a break and make a plan tomorrow.

I know it's a pain now but we'll get there.

GOTHBITES,

Could you run the command "uname -a" as root and post the output please.

Also could you post the contents of the file /etc/modprobe.preload

The stuff you posted is what I was hoping to see. Now if you don't mind answering a few more annoying questions We'll see about getting those new ATI drivers installed.

In your /etc/modprobe.preload you might want to try putting a # in front of all of the amd64-agp lines, rebooting and trying aticonfig --initial -f again.

In Synaptic... What repository do you use?
Are you fully updated? (I know it's been asked, but I don't remember reading an answer)

My appologies, I had meant for you to remove all the ati and nvidia drivers except the one for your card. I am sorry I wasn't clear.

Good, as long as it's not belnet  :)

Alright, Print the installer instructions from https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_cat102-inst.pdf
Restart you computer and boot into failsafe mode. It will take you to a CLI instead of the normal login screen. Become root (su) and cd over to the directory where you downloaded the new catalyst driver to and run the command from the instructions (sh ./ati-driver-installer-10-2-x86.x86_64.run). If it installs without any critical errors run the command aticonfig --initial -f. Again, if no critical errors, reboot into your normal mode and log in. If all went well you should now be able to run Catalyst Control Center.

Good Luck

Belnet isn't maintained and is not up to date.

I ask about which repo you use because belnet also happens to be the default repo, and updating through there will cause problems.

At least that's the buzz around the forums.

When I install pclos from the live CD the repo that is always selected is belnet. I have to change it before I can properly upgrade/update.

cd means change directories. ie: cd /home/your_user_name_here/Downloads Or where ever you saved the driver package to.
