[fglrx] System forgets display setup

[Michael Truscott]

I am running up to date Hardy on a Thinkpad T60 using the ATi proprietry drivers.

Everything is fine except that after a suspend when I log out instead of gdm I get a popup telling me that the screen cannot be detected at approx. 800 x 600.

If I reboot everything is back to normal and there are no problems (unless I repeat the steps above).

Hi mltruscott,

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? (ISOs are available from cdimage.ubuntu.com)

If it remains an issue, could you also attach a new /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
Thanks in advance.

The output of lspci -vvnn would also be worth having.
