I don't think this is the same bug as stated as the screen works for kubuntu splash screen both start-up and shutdown and all the same I have found a fix and solved the problem and now Itrepid is working brilliantly :). Ok so this is what i did: 1.Used recovery mode option and logged in a root user 2. run apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg-video-ati xserver-xorg-video-radeon 3. use the command 'exit' to get back to recovery options then run the xfix (xserver recover tool) (I'm not sure whether this acctually achieves anything but it worked :) ) 4. Restart Kubuntu will run using vesa drivers and works fine 5. install fglrx using jockey >From doing this i was curious what the problem was so reinstalled the xserver-xorg-video-ati package and same problem occured so it appears to be a problem with those drivers and the Sapphire 3850HD AGP card but fglrx works just fine with it so try as above. -- Sapphire ATI 3850HD (AGP) does not work with Intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292103 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
