You must have missed a step to kill xorg and stop xserver from loading. I said this in my post that you can stop your GUI from being bootable.
Have you tried purging, rm everything from /etc/ati (just in case, but this should be removed with purge) and reinstalling the ati-drivers through the recovery terminal? Also, did you follow the ati driver installation instructions and make sure you had all the required packages to build the drivers for your system correctly? Also make sure your settings in xorg.conf are setup correctly for all devices? And if the fglrx driver is not installed, make sure your xorg.conf is not looking for it. You might also want to try from a terminal dpkg-reconfigure -xserver- xorg once you reinstall the drivers. I just installed ati fglrx 9.5 today and reverted back to 9.4 with my own guide. You had to have missed a step. Do you see a black screen or does xorg actually report an error before you even get that far? Also, some googling might help as well to get you back in the GUI. I found these in the first set of results. You should also maybe start a post if your issue is not generic. http://forumubuntusoftware.info/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=3157 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=690760 Feel free to email me, sorry you're having issues, -Ais -- restricted drivers (ATI) causes Xorg memory leakage https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353800 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
