Bug Description

I tried to install a non-beta driver for my ATI/AMD Radeon HD card via "sudo apt-get install fglrx", but Lubuntu didn't start it's GUI on boot any more. Then, I tried to remove the driver via "sudo apt-get remove fglrx". It didn't help; Lubuntu wouldn't boot at all, it would just get stuck during booting. With a live-CD I got Lubuntu to boot again, so that I could install the previously-working fglrx-updates package. Now everything works again.
I let the other fields be automatically filled, because I haven't got a clue what actually went wrong with which package, so the information in the other fields might not be completely correct.
