I just attempted the install with the "proposed" version 8.11 and the issue persists on mine as well.
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10] aticonfig --list-adapters reports that there are no adapters found after the reboot. The following is how I'm rolling back to the old driver: $ sudo apt-get autoremove xorg-driver-fglrx $ /etc/init.d/gdm restart No need for a reboot as the kernel doesn't load the driver at boot-time. Works like a charm.
