Comment 19 for bug 1511301

hi kai and alberto,

alberto, am i right in thinking it sounds like there is a new fix and i should try and the software updater method matthew described to see if it will sort itself. when i tried it last it just crashed.

kai, and if that doesn't work then you're saying that it's safe to just purge the fglrx. that won't break it worse? (can it get worse lol) is it sudo apt-get purge fglrx? then sudo apt-get fglrx installer? is there a dash between fglrx-installer? i know such things can be important.

thanks guys. indeed i do think my issue is a bit different from what little my geekling understanding allows me, but also looks like some of the ways of fixing it might be similar. i did post a separate bug when i realized that in case that allowed the unbuntu gods to help sort it.

haven't been back in ubuntu in a few days. been updating/upgrading my windows partition so i have a functional operating system, even if it's not my beloved ubuntu. will wait to try out the fix till later. am geekling tech brained out right now after windows 10 upgrade. i think it might have eaten a teenie tiny bit of my soul =P
