If you have ATI x1000 series or older, please don't use these drivers. They do not support those cards.

If you have ATI HD 2000 to HD 4000 series:

As of Oct 2012, this is the newest driver supporting these cards. For more information, please see AMD Catalyst™ 12.6 Legacy Driver. However, it appears there may be problems running this driver on Quantal due to them not supporting xserver 1.13: [1]. Proceed at your own risk.

If you have ATI HD 5000 series or newer:

You can also use the newest edition of the ATI drivers that support your card.

Next:

  • unzip to home directory
  • sudo sh ./amd-driver-installer-*.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/quantal
  • sudo dpkg -i fglrx*.deb
  • sudo aticonfig --initial -f
