package fglrx 2:8.801-0ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: fglrx kernel module failed to build

[Thomas Winkelmann]

I have just updated my test Natty from 2.6.37-12 to 2.6.38 - 1.28. Restart failed three times at different points, but shortly after starting bluetooth, that is not the problem, I just remember that line to be one of the last. I got no concrete reason for hang up. Then I tried recovery -> failsaveX mode after package repair. And got here by error box. I have a AMD FirePro V7800 Graphics Adapter working for a Dell U2711 Monitor at 2560 by 1440 Pixel - fgrlx drivers are still tricky... I have not tried to build the kernel again.
