@Alberto, don't forget to fill in the SRU paperwork, I think they're
being more strict about including that now.  I went ahead and filled it
in for this bug, so we can  hopefully see some forward progress on the
SRU review.

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
+ A patch included in the driver dkms packaging was included in a kernel 
update, so the patch application by the driver began to fail.
  
  [Fix]
+ The patch in question can now be dropped.  There is a new upstream driver 
released for fglrx so we may as well pull that in at this time.
  
  [Test Case]
+ 1.  On a precise system with a recent supported ATI graphics card
+ 2.  Run jockey-gtk
+ 3.  Select the fglrx-updates package and install it
+ 4.  Reboot
+ 
+ Expected:  Installs cleanly and boots back to ubuntu using the fglrx driver
+ Actual:  Fails installation.
  
  [Regression Potential]
+ Since this is a patch application issue, only way this would regress is if 
someone readded it.
+ 
+ The fix being proposed includes updating to a new driver release, which
+ is fine as per the tech board's video driver update policy, however
+ since the driver is closed source we have no way of being 100% sure
+ there are not changes which could bring regression.
  
  [Recommended Validation]
+  * Verify the driver can be installed via jockey, and will reboot ok
+  * At least 1-week in -proposed for testing
  
  [Original Report]
  
- 
- I get information that some problems occured during update this package.
