Which version of tc are you trying to install this on?

"amd-driver-installer-catalyst-13-4-x86.x86_64.run" suggests the 64-bit version of tc, but "i686:lib::none:3.0.21-ti" suggests the 32-bit version.

On my hardware (macmini), I don't require any any additional drivers for to connect a monitor via the hdmi output, albeit connected via an hdmi-dvi adapter.
Title: Re: driver for HDMI monitor
Post by: manit123 on November 04, 2013, 04:10:46 AM
it is 4.7.7 as output by 'version' command.

my graphic card is connected to CRT via VGA & to TV via HDMI . Currently desktop is duplicated on both. This catalyst binary helps to configure extended desktop etc.
catalyst binary works fine with backtrack5 - 32bit.
Title: Re: driver for HDMI monitor
Post by: Juanito on November 04, 2013, 05:44:41 AM
OK, so you're using the 32bit version of tc-4.7.7

Perhaps you need to load the Xorg-7.6-dev extension?
Title: Re: driver for HDMI monitor
Post by: manit123 on November 05, 2013, 10:40:02 PM
installed Xorg-7.6-dev
Now I get
Quote
Supported adapter detected.
Check if system has the tools required for installation.
fglrx installation requires that the system have kernel headers.  /lib/modules/3.0.21-tinycore/build/include/linux/version.h cannot be found on this system.
fglrx installation requires that the system has make tool. make cannot be found on this system.
fglrx installation requires that the system has gcc tool. gcc cannot be found on this system.
One or more tools required for installation cannot be found on the system. Install the required tools before installing the fglrx driver.
Optionally, run the installer with --force option to install without the tools.
Forcing install will disable AMD hardware acceleration and may make your system unstable. Not recommended.

Post by: Juanito on November 05, 2013, 11:09:52 PM
you need to load the compiletc extension and (probably) linux-headers-3.0.21-tinycore
Title: Re: driver for HDMI monitor
Post by: manit123 on November 14, 2013, 06:41:54 AM
Did that .
Also had to install Xorg-7.6-bin.tcz
i get error during compilation
Code: [Select]
du: invalid option -- 'b' --hdmi monitor post  additionally installed Xorg-7.6.tcz
looks like busybox 'du' command does not have -b option (reports all file size in bytes). Can i install any app that helps ? Or any other way ?

What does "modinfo /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/2.6.x/fglrx.ko" give?

This might show what deps are needed to avoid the "unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter" error.

You can try if SysRq still works.

What about blacklisting the radeon driver and see what happens then.

Also, please consider changing the topic, as this is specific to the flgrx proprietary driver, but not at all to HDMI.

Try "Xorg -nolisten tcp" instead of "startx" to troubleshoot

Xorg is looking for a driver named /usr/local/lib/X11/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so, not to be confused with the kernel module fglrx.ko

Maybe you need the ati Xorg driver and the fglrx kernel module?

i got driver from http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Linux%20x86
I will try to follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
Then get back.
