Ubuntu Dual Screen Using Virtual Machine - AMD GPU
- by Chris
I've been searching online and reading tutorials and etc about how to make my ubuntu VM dual screen(x86_64). I have first tried to run these commands:
sudo aticonfig --initial -f
which gave me the ouput of:
sudo: aitconfig: command not found
I then googled the output and followed these instructions that I tells me to install my ATI drivers onto my ubuntu.
wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/ati-driver-installer-11-5-x86.x86_64.run
sudo sh ati-driver-installer-11-5-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/natty
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo aticonfig -f --initial --adapter=all
sudo reboot
It all works well until I input sudo apt-get -f install which gives me the following output:
sudo apt-get -f install

Errors were encountered while processing:

fglrx-dev
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
At this point, I don't know what to do since running:
gksudo amdcccle
For the record, I have 3D acceleration turned on. The following is my GPU for my VM
lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH VirtualBox Graphics Adapter
Any Help on how I can make my VM dual screen with Ubuntu would be great. Thank you in advance.
