Public bug reported: Hi,
System: ThinkPad T60 2007-ZT6 (graphic card: ATI Mobility RADEON X1400 128MB GDDR-SDRAM) Reproduction: 1. Booting Ubuntu 7.04 from DVD (AMD64) 2. Install restricted ATI driver (fglrx). Do NOT reboot. 3. Install Ubuntu Symptom: X-Server startup fails while booting fresh installed system. No GDM, just the console. Solution: I do not have much experiance with linux. For me reconfiguring xorg.conf with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" as described in http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/XServer_einrichten worked fine. After doing so everything was fine. I installed the restricted ATI driver again (no Live-System now) and did not have any problems with it. For me it seems that the "Ubuntu install process" takes the already modified xorg.conf from the "fglrx-install" but does not perform the necessary operations normally done by rebooting the system after "fglrx install". But that's just an assumption... Greets Fatal ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Ubuntu install after fglrx install under live-system without reboot -> inappropriate xorg.conf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/127511 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
