After upgrading, X and the KDM start fine, but when I enter my username
and pass the login progress box (with the spanner, blue sphere, hard
drive icon, desktop icon etc) never comes up. The cursor is there and
visible, but it just seems to hang other than that.
If I do a ctrl+f1, kdm.log shows:
"(WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0...@1:0:1)
found
swlDalGetDisplayIndex:ERROR: The number of Active Displays is 0
swlDalGetDisplayIndex:ERROR: The number of Active Displays is 0
Failed to set aperture, ret = 0x00000001"
syslog.log repeats at random seeming points throught:
Mar 27 20:43:14 the-beast kdm_greet[3997]: Cannot open default user face"
...and an assortment of goodies from Xorg.0.log, including:
"(WW) This ATI Proprietary Linux Driver does not guarantee support of video
driver ABI higher than 2.0
(WW) Video driver ABI version of the X server is 5.0"
"(WW) fglrx(0): could not detect X server version (query_status=-1)"
and a whole stack of:
"(WW) AIGLX: 3D driver claims to not support visual [0x23 - 72]"
I had something similar just recently and thought I'd managed to fix it just by
chown'ing my home folder, however I tried this again and it did nothing. Trying
to revert to the ATI driver just seems to make things worse. With ATI even the
KDM is replaced by just a white screen that no keyboard shortcut (inc SysRQ
ones) can reset.
All my packages are up do date with none being held back. I'm on Kubuntu
Jaunty AMD64.
