Error with ATI Driver

Templare · 09-15-2007, 12:28 PM

Hi..
I have an error when I click to the "Login" button.
This is the message of the error:
"Unsupported video card!

There are three possible causes for this error:
1. Your video card is too old
2. You haven't installed the latest available drivers
3. You haven't installed the latest DirectX version"

I have an ATI Radeon 7000/VE.

Can anyone help me?

What is your installed driver?

Code:

glxinfo | grep version

should give you the answer.
Try

Code:

glxinfo | grep direct

in the terminal to check if you have 3D Support.
Your card seems a bit old so I guess you have to use the "radeon" driver.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

where do u download the drivers? did u download any drivers for the graphic card?

in the ati page they dont have any driver for this card, i dont see it

the command "glxinfo | grep version" give me this response:
"server glx version string: 1.2
client glx version string: 1.4
GLX version: 1.2
OpenGL version string: 1.3 Mesa 6.5.2"

and the command "glxinfo | grep direct" this:
"direct rendering: Yes"

I use kubuntu 7.04 and i never download the driver for the graphics card.

well... u should have 3d acceleration, but not sufficient (because your opengl version).

u could try to install mesa 7.0, but in ati page they dont have drivers for your card
