AMD® Graphics Workstations

Some workstation configurations include AMD® graphics hardware. HP recommends use of AMD proprietary graphics drivers for best results on Linux systems.

HP also provides recommended versions of AMD proprietary graphics drivers with RPM-compatible installers for RHEL and SLED distributions. These are available from the HP Installer Kit for Linux and workstation driver support packages on hp.com.

The open source RADEON and RADEONHD drivers can conflict with the AMD proprietary graphics drivers, by claiming the hardware early in the boot process. The AMD driver installation process usually blacklists conflicting drivers and turns off kernel mode-setting in the initial RAM image.

Administrator customization of the display characteristics and many other aspects of an AMD proprietary graphics driver environment is available through the following command, which starts the Catalyst Control Center:

/usr/bin/amdcccle

Some settings for AMD graphics, including reconfiguration of the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, can be accomplished through the many options provided by the command:

/usr/bin/aticonfig

Information can be found in these directories after the driver is installed:

/opt/hp/ati

/usr/share/ati

/usr/share/doc/fglrx

If the automatic init script attempts to rebuild the kernel module, the log file is:

/var/log/fglrx-build.log
