How install your catalyst software? I want to know the installation process.

#4

I tell you the easy installation process

a)Open start menu
b)Go to yast
c)Go to repositories
d)add new repository
e)write this on name repository: ati drivers and on url the page of drivers(read this Additional package repositories - openSUSE), ok??
f)when repository added press ok

That is all.:wink:

I download the .run file from ati site then right click on the file and check executable then double click on it and it begin to install but stop on kernel.

#6

Follow the steps described in this post Upgrading ATI driver with atiupgrade. That should do it.

Now I’ve a new problem , I can’t nomore login . It’s began after that the catalyst was not installed on 100% it starts then I have a blue violet screen and I can only go to the command lin by ctrl+alt+f1 but how can i recover the system now?

#8

Did you install it using the method in the link I provided? If you did it should be installed on 100% … unless your disk is full … or the installation failed for some reason (but you should have seen an error message providing some info about what went wrong). Btw a blue violet screen doesn’t sound right.

I have try to install it with right click on the .run and check the executable but now it starts with a violet screen and I can’t do nothing only a ctrl+alt+f1 before that I can’t login and I have accidently click on seesion TWM. What can I do that it works back?

#10

First install the driver correctly. The method I proposed is simple and works. It might not be as simple as a right click but it is safer. But that doesn’t explain why your screen has turned violet.

#11

I will install the drivers but opensuse doesn’t starts anymore I only have a violet screen , are there some recovery like windows or what can I do to start opensuse ?
