Hi,
I went to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgOnTheEdge Then I went to https://launchpad.net/~tormodvolden/+archive. I added the following to my sources.list:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/tormodvolden/ubuntu hardy main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/tormodvolden/ubuntu hardy main
Did aptitude update and then aptitude dist-upgrade. Rebooted pc. Still not working.
Then I rebooted Kubuntu in recovery mode. Renamed my /etc/X11/xorg.conf to xorg.confOLD.
Ran X -configure to force X to create a new xorg.conf file. xorg.conf creation failed. Logfile for this is "X-configure-errors"
Currently, my Xorg still only works when using the ATI fglrx drivers.
I now did the following dangerous upgrade:
ulysses@desktop-pc:/data/downloads$ sudo dpkg -i --force-all xserver-xorg-video-ati_6.7.197+git20080108.fa3e2055-0ubuntu0tormod_i386.deb dpkg: regarding xserver-xorg-video-ati_6.7.197+git20080108.fa3e2055-0ubuntu0tormod_i386.deb containing xserver-xorg-video-ati: xserver-xorg-core conflicts with xserver-xorg-video-1.0 xserver-xorg-video-ati provides xserver-xorg-video-1.0 and is to be installed. dpkg: warning - ignoring conflict, may proceed anyway !

Will reboot pc and let you know if it helped. Fingers crossed ;-)
