Synaptic told us that it want to remove xserver-xorg-video-radeon and xserver- xorg-video-ati. But there are new versions available (xserver-xorg- video-radeon 1:7.5.0-1ubuntu2 and xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:7.5.0-1ubuntu2). Synaptic removed both old packages and Xorg didn't work after that. I selected both new packages and updated them manually. After a restart I had a black screen with a blink cursor. There aren't any error messages in the log file '/var/log/Xorg.0.log' but I found some error messages in the log file '/var/log/syslog': . Exiting.

The temporary solution is to downgrade Xorg: sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-core_1.16.0-1ubuntu1.3_powerpc.deb sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-radeon_7.4.0-2ubuntu2_powerpc.deb sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-ati_7.4.0-2ubuntu2_powerpc.deb I created a package with all debs and Mesa libs for the downgrade last week.
