    Installed ubuntu. I then installed the 10.6 drivers, and rebooted. According to the instructions on amd's pdf file I'm suppose to configure the drivers. However, I couldn't figure out how to do that and just restarted. Drivers seem like they are installed but how do I access the catalyst control panel?

    Nevermind, it seems it's suppose to be in accessories by default, but I can access it via Terminal using this command: DISPLAY=:0 amdcccle

    Wish I could make some kind of shortcut to run this instead of having to use the terminal.
