#AMD RADEON 8650G DRIVER CORRUPTED INSTALL#
Once you’ve set yourself up with KDE and KDM on Fedora 21, you’re in good shape to simply install the driver using a slightly modified version of the Fedora 20 procedure which has been presented on this site for some time:ġ) Download the AMD Catalyst 14.12 (fglrx) driver from AMD’s site.Ģ) Change your working directory to your ~/Downloads directory and extract the amd-catalyst-14-4-linux-x86-x86-64.zip file (it will extract into a directory named fglrx-14.501.1003 in the current working directory): cd ~/Downloads Just make sure you use KDM as your Desktop Manager (I haven’t tested the procedure on Fedora 21, but I suspect it’s identical to the procedure I laid out in the original post on this subject way back in March of 2014 – let me know if it doesn’t work for you), ’cause the GNOME Desktop Manager (GDM) breaks with the Catalyst driver, as well. I haven’t yet really dug into the product architecture so I don’t have the best answer regarding the move from Workstation to Nonproduct, but you can still install KDE (see the “changing Fedora 21 products is not easy” link above) and keep GNOME on your system for times during kernel upgrades (and therefore the required uninstallation and reinstallation of the Catalyst driver) when you need a GNOME fix or something. Now, if you’re like me and you accidentally upgraded to Fedora 21 Workstation (and therefore now have GNOME on your system), you’ll find that certain issues occur (see the link above) and changing Fedora 21 products is not easy.

The best course of action for someone interested in running KDE in Fedora 21 is to either install the KDE Spin or upgrade from a version of Fedora 20 already using KDE with the nonproduct product option.

I’d also like to point out that he uses my exact patch (same timestamps and everything) without attribution, but here I am spreading the good word about his work. In my estimation, it’s easier to simply use KDE, but if you’re really attached to GNOME, you might give his method a try. The problem is, as you might expect, it’s quite the burdensome process. Thanks to reader Fox for directing me to Red Hat intern Levente Kurusa’s guide which allows users to install the Catalyst driver on a system running GNOME. Using GNOME with the AMD Catalyst Driver on Fedora 21 Removing the GNOME Desktop Environment from the Workstation implementation is difficult and attempts to install alternate Desktop Environments currently meet with package conflict issues. In fact, if you’re using Fedora 21 Workstation, you won’t even see the GNOME Desktop Environment group in yum – it’s hidden by default. As you may also be aware, Fedora 21 Workstation, the product designed for the purposes you’re most likely to have in mind if you’re using your system like a normal person, integrates GNOME into the OS more than previous Fedora iterations. So, as you are likely aware, the Catalyst driver does not work with GNOME. With a fully up-to-date Fedora 21 installation, perform the following command to acquire the requisite packages: yum install gcc kernel-headers kernel-develįedora 21 Products and the Proprietary AMD Catalyst Graphics Driver Also, if your X Window System is installed into a nonstandard location, installation of the driver could be either problematic or incomplete. However, you could experience problems trying to run other versions of X after this. If you have multiple version of X Window System installed on your computer the installer will try to detect the default X, and install the driver for the detected version.XFree86 version 4.1.X, 4.2.X, 4.3.X, or XOrg version 6.8.X (Fedora 20 does not use XFree86) or higher.

Please consult to documentation for your distribution how to get and install this. Kernel headers or kernel sources matching version of the kernel you’re running.The release of Fedora 21 and the productization of the operating system has resulted in some new details to which an AMD GPU owner must pay attention:Īs stated by the “installer.html” document provided by the driver, the prerequisites are as follows:

Update: See the next post in this series for information regarding the installation of the fglrx 14.12 driver in Fedora 21 with kernel version 3.19.86_64.
