Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg-driver-fglrx
When running the live CD of Ubuntu 7.10 Release Candidate I get in the
restricted drivers screen the option of installing the Ati proprietary drivers
for my ATI Radeon X1600. While running the live CD everything goes ok, I can
modify the screen resolution and it all looks well.
But when I install the distro to the hard disk and then reboot, I can't get the
X working properly. I try to modify the xorg.cong manually by the vim way, but
I get then a message telling that my graphics card model cannot be detected.
And if I try to select my graphics card model in the list, the X breaks.
I managed to run Ubuntu in a low graphics mode, and I have installed the
proprietary driver again, then I'm told to reboot the computer, and when Ubuntu
starts again I get the same problem: it seems that my graphics card isn't
detected once again and I have to run it in the low graphics mode.
