[elrepo] Announcement: EL5 New ATI (fglrx) drivers now available for testing

[gilesaj]

Phil,

I installed the 32 bit driver and no other packages were required.

I think we are good to go as the library is in the list:

4
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000)
        libaticalrt.so => /usr/lib/fglrx/libaticalrt.so (0xf7f07000)
        libaticalcl.so => /usr/lib/fglrx/libaticalcl.so (0xf7ef7000)
        librt.so.1 => /lib/librt.so.1 (0x00b04000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x009a2000)
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00b0f000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x00b2a000)
        libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00c02000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00afd000)
        libXext.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x0086c000)
        libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x00c56000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00983000)
        libXau.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXau.so.6 (0x00c51000)
        libXdmcp.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXdmcp.so.6 (0x00b5a000)

Yes the task has downloaded and is running now.

Thank you very much for your help and if there is anything else you want me to do on this let me know.

 From the above, it looks like the application looking for 
libaticalrt.so is dnetc_1.02_i686-pc-linux-gnu__ati14, and I note the 
i686 in the filename suggesting it's a 32-bit application.

So lets try installing the 32-bit compatibility libs and see if that 
helps. Do this:

yum --enablerepo=elrepo-testing install fglrx-x11-drv-32bit

That might also pull in further packages from the base/updates repo of 
your distro (CentOS) which is fine. Then reboot and try testing it again.

See above.

Thanks for that - much appreciated. The new libs are correctly linked so 
that looks encouraging. Hopefully the bit above will fix your issue with 
running your BOINC app.

As a test, you could also try running ldd against the BOINC app above 
(dnetc_1.02_i686-pc-linux-gnu__ati14), and you should hopefully see it 
linked against the missing libaticalrt.so library once it's fixed.
