Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg-driver-fglrx

Intrepid Ibex daily

2.6.27-4-generic #1 SMP Wed Sep 24 01:29:06 UTC 2008 x86_64
Build Date: 24 September 2008 06:39:34PM

Installed the fglrx driver and activating it in 'Hardware Drivers'. Upon reboot system goes into failsafe mode. Choosing 'default settings' and rebooting does render the system usable as before, however there is no hardware accelaration in video playback and openGL (tested with screensavers).

here is Xorg.conf (minus comments):

Section "Monitor"
 Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
 Identifier "Default Screen"
 Monitor "Configured Monitor"
 Device "Configured Video Device"
 DefaultDepth 24
EndSection

Section "Module"
 Load "glx"
EndSection

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Configured Video Device"
 Driver "fglrx"
EndSection
