Are you sure you need fglrx driver for x1300. You should really trust 'Hardware Drivers' application these days when dealing with drivers. Onkar -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

[ubuntu-in] Disaster with 9.04, graphics display not working or recovering
Hi Am running 9.04 Ubuntu on a T60 with an ATI x1300 Graphics card Have been facing some minor trouble with the card / graphics so decided to see if updating to the ati card driver fglrx i think would help so using synaptic i installed fglrx (i cannot remember the exact package name) and along with it some more associated packages. It asked for a machine restart and after this i get a messed up modern art screen and no response from the keys except a forced power off. Have tried to use the recover mode from the boot options and i can access the root terminal but am not sure what i should do to recover the system Meaning what to uninstall ?? any ideas ?? will be grateful ram -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
