Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg-driver-fglrx
xorg-driver-fglrx says to conflict with nvidia-glx and it indeed does conflict, because when I try to force the install with --force-conflicts, it tells me a file is already diverted (symlink) by nvidia-glx: dpkg-divert: `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 to /usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa by xorg-driver-fglrx' clashes with `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 to /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa by nvidia-glx' dpkg: error processing xorg-driver-fglrx_8.29.6-1_i386.deb (--install): subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 2 What should be done to make dualhead with 1 fglrx card and 1 nvidia card possible? PS: I'm not having the problem myself, but I'm acting as a bridge between you bugsquashers and my friend who is experiencing this problem ** Affects: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- fglrx + nvidia + dualhead = impossible https://launchpad.net/bugs/65532 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
