CentOS6.4安装ati显卡驱动

台式机安装CentOS 6.4 x86_64位  集成显卡ati4290

CentOS的release notes上：

The proprietary drivers for older AMD ( former ATI ) video cards, namely the 2xxx, 3xxx and 4xxx series ( both integrated in motherboards or standalone cards) are not compatible with the new version of the X server introduced in CentOS-6.4. As of mid-March 2013 the only known workaround allowing the use of the proprietary drivers is to downgrade the X server ( xorg* packages ) to the versions available in CentOS 6.3. More details about the extensive investigation around this issue is available here. Make sure that you do not allow yum to upgrade again the packages that have been downgraded by adding the following to the end of /etc/yum.conf exclude=xorg* Note that use of proprietary drivers was never needed for CentOS-6 if all you wanted was a dual-monitor setup. See this FAQ entry for more details on using a dual-monitor setup.

原来CentOS 6.4版本开始不支持ATI的2xxx，3xxx，4xxx系列的显卡。

但是已经升级到6.4怎么办呢。 只需要把xorg的版本降回6.3版系统时的版本就行

最快源（DVD版自带fastestmirror）

Shell代码

yum install yum-fastestmirror yum-presto

开发工具（为安装显卡做准备）

Shell代码

yum groupinstall “Development Tools”

RPMFusion源

1. 下载EPEL：http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

2. RPMFusion：http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/updates/6/i386 /rpmfusion-free-release-6-1.noarch.rpm  http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/updates/6/i386/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-6-1.noarch.rpm

3. 安装

降级Xorg

Shell代码

1. yum remove xorg-x11-drv-modesetting

2. yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=C6.3\* downgrade xorg\*

3. yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=C6.3\* install xorg-x11-drivers

 防止Xorg再次被更新

编辑/etc/yum.conf添加 exclude=xorg*

安装显卡驱动必要的依赖

Shell代码

yum install libX11.i686 libXext.i686 glibc.i686 libstdc++ compat-libstdc++-33

本人电脑安装为win7和centos双系统，如果重启后不能出来界面，ctrl+alt+F3进入命令行界面，startx 启动，看问题提示
