Hi Bob,
This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in
it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try
with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are
available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/lucid.
If it remains an issue,
it seems we are left in the cold with this one :(
the 'official' driver says our cards are legacy (mine is 2 years old
actually, and it was the top of the line ATI laptop video card at that
time), while they are 'too new' for the open source driver to handle it
properly.
this is a major setback f
Can confirm neither ATI driver from website version 9.3 (won't load) nor
version 9.4 (breaks system) works. Likewise fglrx won't run my ATI
Raedon X300 - breaks system causing display to become unreadable.
Need to restore using recovery mode command line "apt-get remove --purge
xorg-driver-fglrx"

interesting. I also did a re-install of linux-image-2.6.28-11-generic,
but when I open the Hardware Drivers window, it says there are no
proprietary drivers in use on this system, so I can't install the fglrx
driver through this window.
installing xorg-driver-fgrlx manually basically breaks X

Sorry for the delay Russel on this one. I am defiately going to try this
out. Currently am trying to figure out how to upgrade to 2.6.28-12 as
you have.

I'm currently running with the fglrx driver!
I needed to:
* Update the linux kernel to 2.6.28-12-generic (just out today)
* Install the hardware driver, as before
* reboot into safe mode
* copy /etc/ati/control.dpkg-bak to /etc/ati/control
* copy /etc/ati/amdpcsdb.default.dpkg-bak to /etc/ati/amd
This happened to me as well. After recovering my screen I tried EnvyNG
not sure how it would work with 9.04. Haven't done much testing yet, but
so far I am able to use "Extra" Visual Effects.

Thanks Bob! As soon as I get home I'll give your go a shot. Maybe
collectively we can find out whats going on. My 3870 is only a year old,
it's hard to believe they would already drop support on it.

Same issues here. I have an ATI 4850 - for which support has not yet
been dropped as it is a new card. Was working perfectly in 8.10. The
upgrade to 9.04 resulted in graphical corruption on the screen and a
system hang when starting X. Removing the driver allows boot into non-
accelerated GUI. Sele
I found that the problem is ATI, not Ubuntu. Support for quite a number
of cards was dropped as of Catalyst 9.4. Catalyst 9.3, however, does not
support X Server 1.6 which is included in Ubuntu 9.04. Ironically
support for X Server 1.6 was introduced in Catalyst 9.4. Please, let ATI
know what you t
The fix posted above did not resolve this. My system still fails to boot
if FGLRX is installed under 9.04. I have to remove the driver in
recovery mode in order to boot.
This isn't an isolated thing and is likely not due upgrade corruption.
It specifically effects people using fglrx.

Fixed:
1. Chose recovery mode and went into command line with networking. type:
apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx to remove fglrx
this allowed system to boot into older kernel
2. In Synaptic package manager chose Metapackages, and reinstalled
linux-image-generic 2.6.28.11.15
3. boot in
