The PC is an Intel board Celeron and I don't believe the chipset is compatable with the fglrx driver in 6.10, Edgy Eft. Every time I allowed the kernal updates to be installed I lost the video. Not fully understanding how to load or install drivers I took the path of least resistance. I am learning Linux, but I am old and the brain is very slow these days.
One of these days I will get the bug to hack some more and I will update to 6.10 and try to figure out the video driver issue on this machine. Thanks for the reply.
