I have an ATI Radeon 1950x and I have the same problem. I get a black screen when I try to use fglrx; I can only get to the login window when I substitute vesa for fglrx. Also, the keyboard is non responsive, but the actual system is running. Just black screen + non responsive keyboard everytime I use the fglrx provided by ATI or Ubuntu.
I'm not sure how helpful this will be, but I'll attach this log too, it's from when I got the black screen. ** Attachment added: "log.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13432089/log.txt -- ATI driver enabled 8.04 don't start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207108 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
