sambolinux,
You need to specify the exact path to the
aticonfig file.
Try using the following commands to find and execute the
sudo aticonfig --initial -f command.
1: Open a terminal, and type
- Code: Select all
sudo updatedb
and supply your password when/if prompted.
2: After the previous command has finished (there will be no output from the command, it will just return to the command line prompt) type this:
- Code: Select all
locate aticonfig
and take note of the complete path to the file
aticonfig.
3: Either type or copy and paste this path along with the command and hit your enter key and all should work. BTW: the path to the file
will most likely be as follows:
/usr/bin/aticonfig
- so your command should look similar to this:
- Code: Select all
sudo /usr/bin/aticonfig --initial -f
(if not post the results of your
locate aticonfig command here for further assistance).
FYI:
Anytime you get a message about a file or command not being found, it means the system does not know where the file is located. This can occur even if the file is is the same directory you are currently in. There is a database file that keeps track of this information, and the command
sudo updatedb is used to "refresh" the information in that database. That then allows the command
locate filename to actually find the file and display the path to it. This is a very helpful command for just such problems as you experienced with the system finding the
aticonfig command.
I have included a screenshot of the terminal and the results of the commands above for you below...

If you continue to have problems, just post back and we will help as needed....
