Ati 9200 - no 3D effects

[crl6904]

I'm trying to update the 3D on my video card (ATI 9200 Radeon) from this link :

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ra...t=%28radeon%29

and this is the answer from my PC :

Code:
carlo@carlo-desktop:~/Desktop/ati_stuff$ sudo dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b

dpkg-parsechangelog: error: cannot open debian/changelog to find format: No file or directory
dpkg-buildpackage: unable to determine source package is
while doing : dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b

am I doing something wrong ?

Thanks

Re: Ati 9200 - no 3D effects

Are you in the right place when you dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b ?

Check where is folder: debian


Hmm - This is from Install.txt/SMplayer:

7) How to make a deb package
----------------------------
First of all be sure you have the package fakeroot installed.
Enter in smplayer-0.5.x. If the directory debian/ doesn't exists, rename
debian-rvm to debian.
Not type "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot".
The deb package will be created in the parent directory.

Re: Ati 9200 - no 3D effects

how do I do that?
I'm still a newbie and not very good at Linux commands...

Re: Ati 9200 - no 3D effects

Use konqueror: Goto ~/Desktop/ati_stuff and press Ctrl +F (Find).

Maybe in the directory xserver-xorg-driver-ati-version.

This downloads three files and unpacks the sources into the directory xserver-xorg-driver-ati-version.

And in the konsole:

:~$ find -name "filename"

man find:

FIND(1) FIND(1)

NAME
find - search for files in a directory hierarchy

SYNOPSIS
find [-H] [-L] [-P] [path...] [expression]

Using man pages:
In the konsole:

man <name>

Example:

:~$ man man

MAN(1) Manual pager utils MAN(1)

NAME
man - an interface to the on-line reference manuals

SYNOPSIS
man [-c|-w|-tZ] [-H[browser]] [-T[device]] [-adhu7V] [-i|-I] [-m sys‐
tem[,...]] [-L locale] [-p string]....

You can use konqueror: enter man:<name> in the URL line.
