guitmz Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I used Antegros before, I never really liked it for some odd reason. But, aside from that, anyone know my problem getting catalyst drivers? Antergos is arch with a good installer and themed environment, nothing more.. it's still pure arch the openbox default setup looks great to me.. the wiki I posted above shows how to install catalyst from aur as well, is not antergos specific Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BinaryData Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I would say try OpenSUSE. I'm not a huge Linux nut, but I'm drifting more and more to it everyday. This has been a massive source of information. Thank you all to your comments! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindovermaster Moderator Posted March 24, 2015 Author Moderator Share Posted March 24, 2015 Try Antergos! Should make things easier for you. antergos.com As for GPU drivers: http://antergos.com/wiki/hardware/amd-catalyst-drivers/ I have a radeon as well on PC and I used this guide before without issues (now I don't even bother installing GPU drivers as I don't game in the Linux, only in Windows.. the open source driver is enough for me) Can you explain this while using Yaourt? error: target not found: xorg-server<1.17.0 It can't go past this...

guitmz Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Can you explain this while using Yaourt? error: target not found: xorg-server<1.17.0 It can't go past this... the catalyst driver looks for an older version of xorg, you need to install it instead using the one that comes with the system... amd didnt released a driver for the newer xorg, which is a pain click here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AMD_Catalyst#Installing_the_driver and check the red box warning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guitmz Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 as far as I remember, you add the repos to the pacman file and the key will be shown when you try to install.. then you say yes and thats it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindovermaster Moderator Posted March 24, 2015 Author Moderator Share Posted March 24, 2015 [xorg112] Server = http://catalyst.wirephire.com/repo/xorg112/$arch ## Mirrors, if the primary server does not work or is too slow: #Server = http://mirror.rts-informatique.fr/archlinux-catalyst/repo/xorg112/$ar$ #Server = http://mirror.hactar.bz/Vi0L0/xorg112/$arch This is what they said to add. There is no key in the repo. Unless I copied the wrong thing? I tried doing a pacman -Sy. But for that repo says xorg112 12.3 KiB 4.02M/s 00:00 [######################] 100% xorg112.sig 287.0 B 0.00B/s 00:00 [######################] 100% error: xorg112: key "ABED422D653C3094" is unknown error: key "ABED422D653C3094" could not be looked up remotely error: failed to update xorg112 (invalid or corrupted database (PGP signature)) error: database 'xorg112' is not valid (invalid or corrupted database (PGP signature)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplezz Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 sudo pacman-key --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 0xabed422d653c3094 && sudo pacman-key --lsign-key 0xabed422d653c3094 sudo pacman -Syu And remember to put the xorg repo at the top of the server list in /etc/pacman.conf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
