Re: AMD PowerXpress hybrid graphics -- Catalyst 11.4 pre-release testing

 

Hi Alessandro,

You don't need the script to change from Intel->ATI and ATi->Intel.
Once the fglrx driver is installed and the links are properly configured, the switch
should be done by the Ati Catalyst control panel in the desktop, or by
sudo aticonfig --px-igpu or sudo aticonfig --px-dgpu in the command line.

By doing this, aticonfig is the app that performs the libglx.so link switch between FGL.renamed.libglx.so and fglrx/fglrx-libglx.so

I've also seen that with 11.3 (8.831) in maverick, aticonfig also performs a switch in the /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 library, switching between FGL.renamed.libGL.so.1.2 and fglrx/libGL.so.1.2, so the proper links have also to be configured.
I've done:
FGL.renamed.libGL.so.1.2 -> /usr/lib/mesa/libGL.so.1.2
libGL.so.1.2 -> /usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so.1.2
libGL.so.1 -> /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2
libGL.so -> /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2

Cheers,
Anton

Hi Albert,

I'm a new member and I can't understand on how to reply to the discussion in
object.
I've made the links to libglx.so following the Anton's guide.
I've created a script to switch libGL.so in order to make powerXpress works.
In effects the driver switch only the libglx.so, but not the libGL.so so.
Using the AMD version with Intel card result to display corruption.
This script make the correct libGL.so link.

Sorry for my english.

Cheers
Alessandro
