Harry,
No I did not, test execution steps do not recomend doing that,
please take a look at what we are asked to perform regarding this TC:
1. Boot with functioning proprietary driver
2. Using the GUI software management tools, mark the proprietary driver
for removal
3. *Verify the driver is removed by running dpkg -l '*fglrx*' and dpkg -l
'*nvidia*' and noting any remaining installed components *
4. *Reboot *
5. *Verify system starts up in GUI mode *
6. Verify the appropriate open source driver loaded by checking
/var/log/Xorg.0.log
7. Test basic functionality (see above)
8. Test 3D, to verify the OpenGL libraries got properly reinstalled
I would have made those changes had I got the terminal prompt, but
unfortunately I do not even get that. But should it not ask if the drivers
is no longer available. If I am not mistaken, it should fallback to low
graphics mode if driver mentioned in xorg.conf is no longer present.
Thank you,
yasaswi
