Re: [Bug 871344] Re: Jockey cannot install FGLRX (AMD Graphics Driver)

 

After installing linux-source-3.0.0 and linux-headers-3.0.0-12-generic, the
apt-get completed successfully and jockey is currently displaying a green
"activated" icon besides the (non post-update) fglrx driver.  I haven't
tried restarting to test it yet because I'm going to install the
post-release updates first.
