Title: Additional Drivers fails to report active driver in use Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04.2 and when I went to install the proprietary AMD/ATI drivers, I was given three choices: ATI FGLRX -post release update ATI FGLRX -experimental beta Experimental AMD binary Xorg driver and kernel module I installed first the post release update, but when I went to additional drivers it stated the driver is activated but not currently in use. However, when I used the terminal and entered fglrxinfo, it indicated the driver was in use. Subsequently, I also installed the FGLRX experimental beta and got the same from additional drivers, driver is activated but not currently in use. It also says "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system." Again, when I enter fglrxinfo it returns the following: display: :0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. OpenGL renderer string: ATI FirePro V4800 (FireGL) Graphics Adapter OpenGL version string: 4.2.11978 Compatibility Profile Context FireGL So, what is the problem with Additional Drivers indicating "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system." ?
