In 4 different ubuntu flavors (mate 18.04, kubuntu 18.04, xubuntu 18.04, and a live ubuntu 20.10) this is what I get after
lspci | grep VGA:
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RC410M [Mobility Radeon Xpress 200M]
But it's not true, my graphic card is ATI Radeon Xpress 1100.
Also, lspci -k | grep -EA3 'VGA|Display' gives:
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RC410M [Mobility Radeon Xpress 200M]
Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. RC410M [Mobility Radeon Xpress 200M]
Kernel driver in use: radeon
Kernel modules: radeonfb, radeon
I am sure it's Ati Radeon Xpress 1100 as that is in the stick label and also with windows.
Can I make Ubuntu see it?
As a "workaround", I even tried (in all 4 ubuntus) to get proprietary drivers from the "Software and updates" app, in the "Additional Drivers" tab; what I get is that there is no driver needed.
Later on I might try a manual install as here from here, but for now maybe there is a way for ubuntu to correctly identify my graphic card.
I also have downloaded the corresponding Linux driver from AMD site the one for Linux x86_64 from this page, but if I open the file (ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run) in an elevated Terminal emulator, after the archive is uncompressed, it writes:
Error: ./default_policy.sh does not support version
default:v2:x86_64:lib::none:5.4.0-42-generic; make sure that the version is being
correctly set by --iscurrentdistro
Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install.8ncUac
Also strange is that command:
sudo ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg xubuntu/bionic
gives: "sudo: ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run: command not found "
