X error on Ubuntu: stream sdk 2.3, Catalyst 10-12

Unable to run any of the CAL/OpenCL examples

Ubuntu 10.04, a 5570 card, Phenom 2 cpu

Stream sdk 2.3, catalyst 10-12.

When I compile/run the CLInfo example, I get

X Error of failed request: .... major: 157, minor 19

I get the same error from the CAL example FindNumDevices.

 

I downloaded and installed the stream sdk and the catalyst driver today.

I can successfully run the catalyst control center, and have done aticonfig --initial --force (with reboot) a couple of times.

Prior to installing the stream sdk/driver, I did update my system to the latest set of patches, etc with the Ubuntu update manager.

 

Regards,

Rick

Again, an X error

X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)

 

Major opcode of failed request: 157 (GLX)

Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)

Serial number of failed request: 18

Current serial number in output stream: 18

 

So how do I 'properly' install the driver if not by running:

sh ati-driver-installer-10-12-x86.x86_64.run

as root?

Thanks for the link, but it does not seem to work correctly - multiple warnings about unable to find symbols used by various libraries (including dlsym, which is definitely on the system) - I'm assuming those are benign.  I also get an error:

dpkg-shlibdeps: error: no dependency information found for /usr/share/ati/lib64/libQtCore.so.4 (used by debian/fglrx/usr/lib/fglrx/bin/amdnotifyui).

The library does exist in /usr/share/ati, and when I do 'ldd amdnotifyui', it does resolve everything, and reports the full path toe libQtCore.so.4.

Is there a simple step I'm missing?

 

Followup: I spotted http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1397423

and when I renamed /usr/share/ati/lib64, I could get the build to work; after a reboot and aticonfig, CLInfo does report results in a reasonable fashion.  Thanks for your assistance.
