Mine seems to get stuck on Postprocessing Dispaly and OpenCL drivers.
Also, complete noob question, but is there a shortcut for running term?

thanks.
ran that, and then tried to reinstall and got this in my /usr/share/ati/fglrx-install.log:

Install the package execstack.
It might give you "make: SOMETHING: Command not found" again, where SOMETHING is any command name. From now on, just search the package contents for whatever "SOMETHING" is on http://packages.ubuntu.com/. It will give you a package name to install. If it gives you more than one result choose the one that has "SOMETHING" located in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin.
thanks, ran both of those but apparently i did not do the uninstall correctly, because the installation is not working and Ubuntu still detects an existing fglrx driver.
this is the /usr/share/ati/fglrx-install.log
any ideas?

It looks like it wants you to install debhelper:
Code:
sudo apt-get install debhelper
thanks.

if one wanted to do this install/upgrade purely via SSH at a remote station, what would the commands be to download the package and uninstall the current install?
To download files, use wget:
Code:
wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run
To remove packages, use apt-get:
Code:
sudo apt-get purge fglrx fglrx-amdcccle fglrx-dev

basically, how do you uninstall the existing drivers through SSH?

When I try to run
sudo sh ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run
It says
sh: Can't open ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run
sudo sh ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run
It says
sh: Can't open ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run
In the directory that you downloaded the ati-driver...
at the terminal prompt
chmod +x ati-driver[TAB Button] [ENTER key]
then at the command prompt do
sh ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run
When I try to run
sudo sh ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run
It says

sudo sh ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run
It says

You MUST cd to the folder where ati.* driver file is stored & also u need root rights to run the file. In the properties of the file, check the permissions you have to read & write.
Guys can you help :O
When I go to the Synaptic viewer, only the first two fglrx's have green boxes in front of them. dev and moda are not installed. I try uninstalling the first two, and running the 11.6. After it finishes, i can't sudo aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=all, i just gives me errors. Rebooting locks up my computer at the Ubuntu loading screen
That happened the first time when I tried this. I was using Inaba's guide before, so I had SDK 2.4 already. I tried a fresh install, but the same things happened. I can't get 11.6 to work.
You sure you uninstalled correctly?When I go to the Synaptic viewer, only the first two fglrx's have green boxes in front of them. dev and moda are not installed.

Go to Ubuntu recovery mode -> root terminal & try to sudo aticonfig........ from their.
If it says file not exist or some other error saying their is NO aticonfig then its not installed properly.
Go to recovery mode & select graphics with low resolution & in that select 2nd reconfigure. then ok, &ok, cancel, coz it will reconfigure & came back to previous screen & go for restart.
after that go in normal mode & see what you have. whether 11.5 or 11.6.
You can see it in applications-> installed "see xx more results" by moving the mouse to left top & it will bring out task bar & their in applications. clicking see xx more will show all installed with 2 ati catalyst & ati catalyst administrative rights.
In any one click information(next to welcome) & see what drivers installed.
Also you can role back by selecting repair packages in recovery mode & also trying to install 11.5 in synaptic manager in recovery mode. But you need root access.
I too newbie in Linux, I got it installed by trial & error only. Hopes this help.
