I'm using Linux Manjaro 0.8.13 on my laptop and want to install proprietary drivers.
Here is what i have:

efog# lspci | grep VGA

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Thames [Radeon HD 7500M/7600M Series] (rev ff)

At first, i've tried to install drivers using "Manjaro Settings Manager" and "Hardware detection". Right-clicked on "video-catalyst", then "Install", rebooted and got black screen without X.

Then i've tried to install it manually. At first i downgraded my xorg-server to version 1.15. Here is all what i did then:

yaourt catalyst-test #conflict with mhwd

yaourt catalyst-total-pxp #conflict with mhwd

sudo mhwd -i pci video-catalyst #ok, but black screen

Then i've removed mhwd with -Rdd option and tried to install catalyst again. I got this:

Building fglrx module for 3.18.15-1-MANJARO kernel ...

Failed!!! Check out log: /var/log/catalyst-install.log

Switch to AMD

----------------------------------------------------------------

You can use the tool 'aticonfig' to generate an xorg.conf file.

--------------------- ^^^^^^^^^ --------------------------------

fglrx was added into /etc/modules-load.d/catalyst.conf

----------------------------------------------------------------

    atieventsd (needs acpid pkg) on systemd:

systemctl enable atieventsd

systemctl start atieventsd

                ATTENTION!

----------------------------------------------------------------

To enable 'automatic re-compilation while system shutdown/reboot' 

testing feature run these commands as root:

systemctl enable catalyst-hook

systemctl start catalyst-hook

----------------------------------------------------------------

---------------- I/O BUG ---------------------------------------

There's a bug in fglrx found by lano1106 which generates

great amount of unneeded I/O operations



To activate workaround enable systemd service:

systemctl enable temp-links-catalyst

systemctl start temp-links-catalyst

Help me please, what i have to do? I'm totally new to Arch Linux, was using Ubuntu before.

I have only 1 assumption:

efog# uname -a               

Linux efog-pc 3.18.14-1-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon May 25 01:26:15 UTC 2015 x86_64 GNU/Linux

And in .log file i see version 3.18.15-1. But i really dont know what to do.

I think that now the recommended one for AMD graphics is the AMDGPU-PRO and not the Catalyst.

If the whmd can't find the proper ones, you can still donwload the Linux ones by searching you model at the webpage: https://www.amd.com/en/support.
