** Description changed: - On a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.10 i installed the fglrx-updates AMD - Catalyst drivers from the official repositories and rebooted into a low - graphics mode desktop, while Unity failed to load. + Using my Samsung Chronos 7 700z3a-S03-DE ( + http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/model/NP700Z3A-S03DE ) laptop with + fglrx-installer-updates in 12.10, Unity failed to load, booting into a + low graphics mode. It worked with Ubuntu 12.04 and fglrx-installer from + the repositories. - I have also tried fglrx-installer and the latest AMD Catalyst drivers - from the AMD website (12.9, 12.10, 12.11beta), neither of which worked - any better, while all produced the same result. I had also tried the PPA - from Nick Andrikos - (https://launchpad.net/~andrikos/+archive/ppa/+packages?field.name_filter=&field.status_filter=published&field.series_filter=quantal) - and that also produced a low graphics mode non-Unity loading - environment. - - My laptop is a Samsung Chronos 7 700z3a-S03-DE with a intel hd3000 - integrated and Radeon HD6490M discrete graphics card. - - Also possibly of note is the fact that the same laptop worked very well - with Ubuntu 12.04 and its AMD Catalyst 12.6 drivers in the repositories. + I have also tried: + + fglrx-installer + + latest AMD Catalyst drivers from the AMD website (12.9, 12.10, 12.11 beta) + + PPA from Nick Andrikos https://launchpad.net/~andrikos/+archive/ppa/+packages?field.name_filter=&field.status_filter=published&field.series_filter=quantal + + https://launchpad.net/~makson96/+archive/fglrx?field.series_filter=quantal ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: fglrx-updates 2:9.000-0ubuntu3 [modified: usr/lib/fglrx/10fglrx] ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-17.28-generic 3.5.5 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-17-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu6 Architecture: amd64 Date: Fri Nov 2 22:13:05 2012 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-11-02 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.5) MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: TERM=linux PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: fglrx-installer-updates UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) --- ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu6 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: davorao 1916 F.... pulseaudio CRDA: country DE: (2400 - 2483 @ 40), (N/A, 20) (5150 - 5250 @ 40), (N/A, 20), NO-OUTDOOR (5250 - 5350 @ 40), (N/A, 20), NO-OUTDOOR, DFS (5470 - 5725 @ 40), (N/A, 26), DFS DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=45fbf291-c3d4-4726-be35-c707fa1f10d8 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-11-03 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.5) MachineType: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. 700Z3A/700Z4A/700Z5A/700Z5B MarkForUpload: True Package: linux (not installed) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb 1 radeondrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-17-generic root=UUID=2eb91f24-891a-49d2-baf5-749eca7f4e08 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-17.28-generic 3.5.5 PulseList: Error: command ['pacmd', 'list'] failed with exit code 1: Home directory /home/davorao not ours.
