Comment 4 for bug 858025

Ok, it does kinda seem like it was the amd graphics driver that did it,
even though ubuntu said it wasn't activated. It must have messed with the configurations, which was enough to cause the problem.

And then installing it successfully didn't fix things, as it was the configurations which are the problem maybe?

In any case, having successfully installed the proprietary driver, I was then able to successfully uninstall it (one can't uninstall what isn't installed right?)

That fixed my dual screen problem.

However, in uninstalling that, it seems to have turned off compiz, which I assume is the cause of my fancy new panel not appearing.
I had to create a shell file just to open bash, so that I could open a browser, so I could make this complaint!
