Hello.
I've just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on my new notebook with the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 GPU. I've tried installing flgr driver both automattically and manually. But I still can't get something to work.
What I want to do is to check the GPU temperature. But when I run the command i get the following error msg:

aticonfig --adapter=0 --od-gettemperature

ERROR - ATI Overdrive(TM) is not supported on Adapter 0 - ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650

How can I fix this problems???
Can anyone help me find a way to monitor GPU temperature???

Thanks in advance.

Uh Fedora uses lm-sensors. It takes some configuration but it works. Then I use a gnome-panel applet hardware sensors monitor to display the temps.
It's very likely that ubuntu uses this package as well.

I've tried using lm-sensors but I couldn't make it detect the GPU sensor.
When I use lm-sensors it only displays CPU temperatures. Do you know how to make it work for my GPU? Do you know of any tutorials or a way I can get this working???
