24.175.99.219: /* wrong link / file */ new section

==Generate a new /etc/X11/xorg.conf file==
I believe that the section about making a copy of the old xorg file should be removed, as it seems to me it is making a lot of people getting stuck, not reading the instructions enough attentively <br/>
I will remove the section in roughly two weeks if none complains or express anything against it.

I guess that is okay. IIRC, aticonfig will automatically backup the existing xorg.conf. I just didn't want anyone to lose an xorg.conf that they worked hard on. --[[User:Dtl131|Dtl131]] 18:29, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

The section is now removed <br/>

== plain text version ==

Perhaps somewhere better to post this, but:
found it nice to have a text version on my HD
so I could do the install from term.

Posted it here (1 month to delete)

if one would like to host it here.
Lynx is of course another viable alternative.

== wrong link / file ==

<nowiki>The document says to get the driver (manual install) from
http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/ati-driver-installer-12-1-x86.x86_64.run
but the actual URL is
http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/amd-driver-installer-12-1-x86.x86_64.run

The file is amd-driver-installer-12-1-x86.x86_64.run (starts with amd, not ati).

This is seen in other places on this document.
