Issues and confusion installing AMD R9 290x on Kali 64bit

Hi Guys,

I am trying to install my AMD R9 290x Card on Kali Linux 64bit following this guide here: http://www.blackmoreops.com/2014/03/...i-linux-1-0-6/

when I start fglrxinfo I see following:

Code:

---

root@ozo:~# fglrxinfo
display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: AMD Radeon R9 290 Series
OpenGL version string: 4.3.12618 Compatibility Profile Context 13.251

but when I am checking via System Settings –> Details I see Graphics: VESA: HAWAII

output from Xorg.0.log

Code:

lspci gives me that:

Code:

---

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Hawaii XT [Radeon R9 290X] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Kernel driver in use: fglrx_pci

Can someone tell me which driver I am using now????
The screen or better moving a window is a little sluggish. Before using AMD I had a NVIDIA card - the sluggish behavoir was the same before I installed the NVIDIA drivers.

Thanks for your help!
