More information here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/VideoDriverDetection#Problem :_Need_to_purge_-fglrx Is this still a problem? If it's so, shouldn't this bug be fixed via a conflicts in the packages of both the open source and the proprietary driver?

From dupe: Fglrx installer overwrites mesa and xserer files causing prombles with open source drivers even after removal. Solution would be install fglrx and open drivers to own subdirectories. Loading would either happen using symbolic links or /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ configuration. Also kernel modules should be blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.d/ when switching between drivers. -- MASTER: xserver crash, performs poorly, or other severe problem when loading the radeon driver if -fglrx has not been properly removed first https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285603 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[This is an automatic notification.] A new version of the -ati driver is now available in Karmic. This is a significant update to -ati which brings in kernel mode-setting (currently disabled) and scores of fixes for DRI2, EXA, etc. I've posted the new version of this driver to the following PPA, would you mind testing it and seeing if it resolves the bug you reported? https://edge.launchpad.net/~bryceharrington/+archive/ppa/+sourcepub/709908 /+listing-archive-extra If you're not running this release of Ubuntu, you can try booting the Karmic LiveCD and loading the PPA onto it, and then log out/in to restart X. ISOs are available at http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/releases/ After testing Karmic, report back here whether it's still an issue or not, and if it is please post a fresh Xorg.0.log and 'dmesg' output.

I think I've found out what was causing my freezes. During a boot I noticed that something called DKMS loaded fglrx even tho I uninstalled everything fglrx related. Turned out that this DKMS was still loading fglrx so this might have had something to do with my freezes.

[Bug 285603] Re: MASTER: xserver crash, performs poorly, or other severe problem when loading the radeon driver if -fglrx has not been properly removed first
I just experienced this bug as well when upgrading from Intrepid to Jaunty. Except I was using the ati video driver with Intrepid, and for some reason the upgrade process installed the fglrx video driver and this broke X. The gdm-log had the following to say: /usr/bin/X: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri.so: undefined symbol: atiddxAbiDixLookupPrivate 5109 5077 giving up. I solved the problem by purging everything fglrx-related and reinstalling libgl1-mesa-glx and libgl1-mesa-dri: sudo apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg taken from this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver (linked in Bug #345669). It seems to me that this is a bug in the upgrade process of Ubuntu. If it hadn't installed the fglrx-driver, I assume everything would have worked fine. At least it did after removing the fglrx-driver. -- MASTER: xserver crash, performs poorly, or other severe problem when loading the radeon driver if -fglrx has not been properly removed first https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285603 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

3D games freeze for me after upgrading to Jaunty. I have ATI Mobility FireGL V5200. I looked for fglrx in synaptic and found these two packages: linux-restricted-packages-2.6.22-14-generic; linux-restricted- packages-2.6.24-21-generic. They both include the fglrx module. I removed them and Urban terror did not freeze during 40 minutes of playing. -- MASTER: xserver crash, performs poorly, or other severe problem when loading the radeon driver if -fglrx has not been properly removed first https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285603 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

From bug #315889, which had a similar root problem - fglrx bits left over from a prior install, here are some comments/notes: With the linux-source-fglrx package installed, dkms kicks in and loads the kernel module even when -ati is used. There should be some sort of dependency between the linux-source-fglrx and fglrx-installer package so that uninstalling fglrx will take out linux-source-fglrx as well. ** Summary changed: - MASTER: xserver crash when loading the radeon driver if -fglrx has not been properly removed first + MASTER: xserver crash, performs poorly, or other severe problem when loading the radeon driver if -fglrx has not been properly removed first ** Description changed: [Problem] - Running X with the -ati driver fails with a crash if -fglrx is not fully installed first. + Running X with the -ati driver shows various problems if -fglrx is not fully installed first, including crashing, performing poorly, failing during gl operations, etc. A typical use case is upgrading from Ubuntu when you were using to fglrx, to a development version of Ubuntu where -fglrx is not available, and -ati is used instead. - -ati and -fglrx share some overlapping files, which -fglrx replaces when - it's installed and that results in -ati breakage. + -ati and -fglrx share some overlapping files like libgl, which -fglrx + replaces when it's installed and that results in -ati breakage. -fglrx + also installs kernel components which can cause problems if they're + still present when running -ati. + + For more info, see + https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver [Workaround] Make sure -fglrx is fully purged from your system 1. sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx* 2. sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg-video-ati xserver-xorg-video-radeon 3. sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati 4.
