Public bug reported:
OS: Ubuntu 7.10 "Gutsy Gibbon" Beta
GPU: ATI Radeon X1950PRO 512MB
I upgraded from stable Feisty to Gutsy Beta and previously used fglrx
from restricted-manager.
When I select kernel version 2.6.22 in the GRUB menu, I am put into VESA
mode and taken to a buggy display preferences dialog where no matter
what buttons I press or drivers I select the screen flickers black and
grey and returns to the dialog with no options changed. There is no way
to access GNOME or any other graphical system, and turning off the
system can only be done through manual power disconnect.
When I select kernel version 2.6.20 from GRUB, the system loads
correctly and uses the restricted fglrx driver as I expect.
