[Bug 1479596] Re: Cannot Run AMD Catalyst Control Center

 

I have a similar issue after clean install of Kubuntu 15.10. No matter
if I use fglrx or fglrx-updates when trying to launching amdcccle I get
this: "There was a problem initilizing Catalyst Control Center Linux
edition". I used the Driver manager to install these drivers. I have a
HP ProBook 450 with a hybrid graphic. Now I cant switch to dedicated GA.
There were no such problems in previous 15.04.

Title:
  Cannot Run AMD Catalyst Control Center

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I upgraded from Xubunti 14.10 to 15.04.  After the upgrade, my system
  had fglrx and fglrx-core installed.  I had to manually install flgrx-
  andcccle.

  When I tried to run amdcccle from the terminal the cursor moved down
  one line and nothing else happened.  No error messages.

  I rebooted, and the problem was the same.  So I purged the fglrx
  packages, rebooted and installed frlrx-updates versions.

  Now, when I run pkexec amdcccle, I get an Initialization error that
  reads:

  There was a problem initializing Catalyst Control Center Linux
  edition.  It could be caused by the following.

  No AMD graphics driver is installed or the AMD driver is not
  functioning properly.

  Please install the AMD driver appropriate for you AMD hardware, or
  configure using aticonfig.

  When I run sudo aticonfig --initial --adapter=all

  I get this error:

  Unable to open /etc/ati/control, please reinstall the driver.
  aticonfig: No supported adapters detected
