Bug Description
Ubuntu 8.04 Alpha 6 Hardy herron
ATI x1650
Viewsonic VX2235WM
8.04 natively supports my Monitor now this is fantastic. however if I install either the FGLRX or the Ati Cat drivers I get a strange display issue
it loads up and I can log in but the screen goes white and it never loads the desktop.
it loads failsafe just fine. if I uninstall the drivers I can log in normally.

I've got the same problem. The worst part is, I have 2 of these cards, a 256 meg x1650 and a 512 meg x1650 pro. They both kick butt in Vista but I can't even get desktop effects in Ubuntu (Gutsy or Hardy April 11 daily). I've tried installing these drivers from every angle I can find, Synaptic, manually, envy and tried every tip I could find and I always end up with the same white screen.
