Kodi VGA video driver for Asrock QC500 on Debian 7 Wheezy

Asrock QC500 has ATi HD 8330 VGA chip.

To use in Debian 7 (Wheezy) do the following:

  1. Download this or the last stable version from http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Linux+x86:
    E.g.
    http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/amd-catalyst-15.9-linux-installer-15.201.1151-x86.x86_64.zip
  2. unizp and run with:
  3. bash AMD-Catalyst-15.9-Linux-installer-15.201.1151-x86.x86_64.run
  4. Accept the basic answers

You may receive similar error messages:
For further configuration of the driver, please run aticonfig from a terminal window or AMD CCC:LE from the Desktop Manager Menu.
System must be rebooted to avoid system instability and potential data loss.
See /usr/share/ati/fglrx-install.log for installation details.
Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install.1tusX7

It needs gcc and make packages, so install them:
apt-get install gcc make -y
and try again.

I hope it helps.
