Radeon HD 6760M drivers install [How to]

Hello everyone,

I downloaded drivers from ati site today for my graphics card, but I
have no idea how to install it. The file is .run and I’ve never seen
such an extension before. If someone could explain step-by-step, that
would be great. (Also, do I have to delete my current drivers by any
chance?)

Thanks

After installation (before reboot) run also in terminal:[color=blue]

aticonfig --initial[/color]
but you should be prompted about this step while building the driver.

I get this while doing step 2:
Code:

./ati-driver-installer-11-8-x86.x86_64.run
-bash: ./ati-driver-installer-11-8-x86.x86_64.run: Permission denied
[/CODE}
