my laptop has a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650, and I've tried many ways to install the drivers but nothing has worked for me, how can I do it?
Also, I'm not sure why but when I put 'lspci -vvnn | grep VGA'
it showes me this:
VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI
RS880M [Mobility Radeon HD 4225/4250] [1002:9712] (prog-if 00 [VGA
controller])
VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI
Madison [Mobility Radeon HD 5650/5750 / 6550M] [1002:68c1] (prog-if
00 [VGA controller])
What does this mean?
