[Bug 572196] Re: No display on LCD panel when the fglrx driver is installed. Display on external VGA still works.
This issue appears to have been fixed in Ubuntu 10.10. The FGLRX driver now correctly displays on the internal LVDS connected panel. I assume that this is from a corrected/updated version of the FGLRX driver rather than any other reason, since xrandr ( an extension implemented by the driver ) now correctly reports the screen capabilities. If the version of FLGRX driver used in 10.10 is provided as an update to the previous Ubuntu versions ( 9.04, 9.10, 10.04 ), I would further assume that the issue is fixed for those versions, but I have not verified that.

Hello Hameed, Your problem may be similar, but is not the same, I think. This issue has been present in the last 3 releases of Ubuntu on my laptop, so reverting to Karmic would be of no use. Also, as metioned in my original post, I have NO virtual terminals when using fglrx. By the way, in the latest version of Ubuntu, the default xorg.conf is actually blank, with xorg probing for the best values for open source drivers and screen configurations, so the best work-around is to simply delete xorg.conf.

This isn't exclusive to your machine i don't think. I have a HP 6735s with ATI Radeon HD3200 (Integrated) with the same problem. This is a workaround taking the modules used back to the generic Does terminal login still work? (press Ctrl+Alt+F1 when you think you get to the login screen, gives a login terminal) If it does, login using your username (not full name) and password, and then use: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf then remove the entry for loading the fglrx module. Then, press Ctrl+X, press y, then enter then reboot (using sudo shutdown -r now) when you log in, you'll get an error saying problem loading modules or something tell it to use the generic module, it'll have a progress bar, then take you back to the selections, click cancel and cancel again and it should work (if not, navigate through options) It's just a workaround, but not a fix. Really annoying. I'm thinking of going back to karmic just to get rid of this -- No display on LCD panel when the fglrx driver is installed.

[Bug 572196] Re: No display on LCD panel when the fglrx driver is installed. Display on external VGA still works.
Just to update the the behaviour somewhat: According to xrandr, the LVDS (LCD panel) screen is connected. I can use xrandr to tell the LVDS screen what resolution to display, and can set the display to off. When the display is set to off, the backlight goes off, suggesting that the panel is simply not being sent the signal when it is on. However, LVDS still describes the panel incorrectly - it should be 1920x 1200, but I get the following from xrandr... ro...@ubuntu:~$ xrandr --prop Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1400 x 1050, maximum 1600 x 1600 LVDS connected 1400x1050+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm BACKLIGHT: 7 (0x0007) range: (0,7) SignalFormat: DisplayPort ConnectorType: Panel 1400x1050 60.2*+ 1280x1024 60.2 + 1280x960 60.2 + 1280x800 60.2 + 1152x864 60.2 + 1280x768 60.2 + 1280x720 60.2 + 1024x768 60.2 + 1024x600 60.2 + 800x60060.2 + 800x48060.2 + 720x48060.2 + 640x48060.2 + DFP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) SignalFormat: TMDS ConnectorType: HDMI CRT1 connected 1400x1050+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm SignalFormat: VGA ConnectorType: VGA 1600x1200 60.0 + 1400x1050 60.0* 1280x1024 75.0 60.0 1440x900 59.9 1280x960 60.0 1280x800 75.0 60.0 1152x864 75.0 60.0 1280x768 59.9 1280x720 60.0 1024x768 75.0 60.0 1024x600 60.0 800x60075.0 60.3 800x48060.0 720x48060.0 640x48075.0 60.0 Roger Barrett. -- No display on LCD panel when the fglrx driver is installed.
