How to install my display card driver? Previously, I did the following things:

  1. Downloaded the official driver from AMD.com : http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop/legacy?product=Legacy2&os=Linux%20x86_64
  2. Now I have this : enter image description here
  3. Did this in a terminal : chmod +x amd-driver-installer-catalyst-13.1-legacy-linux-x86.x86_64.run
  4. Did this in the terminal : sh amd-driver-installer-catalyst-13.1-legacy-linux-x86.x86_64.run enter image description here
  5. I got this windows, chose the first option and then click "continue" : enter image description here

  6. And this windwos : enter image description here

    .log file : http://paste.ubuntu.com/7320170/

  7. Now what can I do?

Thank you for your attention

Your log suggests that you are missing the linux-headers-generic package.

You can install this by either searching the software centre or entering in a terminal

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic

Should the install continue to fail you may also need to install build-essential, gcc,dkms and make.

you can do this in a terminal by typing sudo apt-get install build-essential dkms gcc make
