Bug Description

I tried installing ATI catalyst 11.7/10.4 to make my ATI RADEON HD 4550 work but instead it crashed my fglrx and now at boot i get failed to get i915 symbols. I still have a flickering external monitor. Is there a fix to that? How can I remove 11.7/10.4 from my system? I tried instructions on installation guide but for some reason I don't have those those folders made after installation.
