Hi all, on my hp pavillion dv6 (AMD radeon hd6700m) I tested nearly every proposed solution on the web. My problems started after upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10. tried proprietary drivers (CATALYST 12.10, 12.4, 12.8), AND opensource one. to no avail. then reinstalled ubuntu 12.10 from cd. then finally I could start and use unity. But when I ran the proposed updates I got back to the previous situation. Even worse: it doesn not shut down nor boot correctly. I can't even access a ctrl-alt-F* terminal. The thing is, I've already spent half a week on this issue and have been having my production machine out of order for the same time. ubuntu12.10 is not for my kind of laptop, it seems.
the bottom line: NEVER UPGRADE UBUNTU WHEN IT ALEADY WORKS (ESP WHEN IT'S A LTS!, even if you still find unity sort of buggy) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1068661 Title: 1002:6740 Unity does not load after installing fglrx-installer-updates Radeon HD 6700M Series w/ 8086:0116 Intel Integrated Card To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/fglrx/+bug/1068661/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
