Title:
After installing and removing proprietary drivers for Radeon cards,
desktop environments do not load.
Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I've done this twice today.
I have a clean install of Oneiric with all updates as of today. I have
a Radeon HD5850 card and the open drivers works perfectly out of the
box, but I was recommended to install the proprietary ones all the
same. So I gave it a go, and found that they were not anywhere near as
good as the open ones, but caused lots of issues and were slower. So I
removed them, and now when I log in, I won't get Unity or Unity 2D,
though the desktop seems to be working properly.
So I installed Xfce4-panel and it works well and its session menu
tells me I'm not running a session manager. So I thought something
might have been automatically removed when I removed the proprietary
drivers, and attempted to install ubuntu-desktop, but it was already
the newest version.
