Comment 0 for bug 560570

After installing fglrx 2:8.721.0ubuntu10 on Lucid Lynx beta 1 and running 'aticonfig --initial', X (1.7.5) only displays a blank screen (system is running, can be ssh'ed in). This is the same effect experienced on a prior Karmic Koala installation with an older version of the driver. On the other hand, xorg's radeon driver runs properly (albeit without GL acceleration).

When running 'aticonfig --query-monitor', I get the following output:
Default Adapter - ATI Radeon HD 5400 Series
# Connected monitors: none
  Enabled monitors: none

If I run xrandr when using xorg's radeon driver, the display is detected:
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1680 x 1050, maximum 1680 x 1680
HDMI-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DVI-0 connected 1680x1050+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 434mm x 270mm
   1680x1050 59.9*+
   1280x1024 75.0 60.0
   1152x864 75.0
   1024x768 75.0 60.0
   800x600 75.0 60.3
   640x480 75.0 59.9
   720x400 70.1
VGA-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

The card is a Saphire Radeon HD 5450 (512 DDR3 model) with 3 outputs: DVI, HDMI and VGA. The DVI output is connected to a DELL 2005 FPW monitor, with 1680x1050 native resolution.

Please advice if any other information is necessary.

Regards

Manuel
