I did eventually get this laptop working reasonably well.

Unity-2d is startlingly poor - no customisation options, so you'll get the whole "FisherPrice" experience - but necessary unless you can put up with the noise of the fans blasting full time. This laptop is NOT a good choice for Ubuntu. Suspend/resume, WIFI, sound and 1600x900 resolution, however, all work fine. It's also incredibly insensitive, so you'll have to tweak it again with synclient FingerLow=3Įvery login to make it usable without pressing the full pad of your finger in order to move the mouse.
Other issues - no control over the backlit keyboard (it's always on), screens brightness resets to full on startup, ignoring your choice/amendments in the display settings and finally, as it's a buttonless trackpad, you'll need to make some tweaks ( ) in order to get it working. If I uninstall the drivers, I get a Unity 3D session using the Intel driver, but then the ATI card runs at full speed constantly, driving the fans at full speed. My driver, according to my system settings, is blank, which I presume means that I'm on Intel.
Ati radeon hd 6750 drivers#
Currently I have the drivers installed, but I have to delete my nf in order to get a desktop, which dumps me to a Unity-2d session. I've tried Oneiric and Precise, with catalyst 11.2 and more recently 12.1. Short note to say that I never got my Chronos 7 working with fglrx drivers.
Ati radeon hd 6750 driver#
You can easily toogle between the open source xserver-xorg-video-ati driver and the closed driver by following these steps. The xserver-xorg-video-ati open source driver will be installed by default once your card is detected, the performance in not au pair with the closed driver but really big improvements are done with each release so its definitely an option. The Radeon HD 6490 or the 6490M are not officially supported by ATI's Catalyst drivers but the open source xserver-xorg-video-ati driver should work without a problem. That can be fixed following some simple steps. The Radeon HD 6750M will work even tough you will find your self with a watermark on the right bottom corner of the screen saying your hardware is not supported. The Radeon HD 6750 is officially supported by ATI's Catalyst drivers and the xserver-xorg-video-ati open source drivers.
The question is not if Ubuntu supports your hardware or not, it is more if your hardware builder has made any drivers for your hardware to be usable in Linux.
