I can confirm that this is still a problem in the released Oneric. I did get the exact same errors when using a dual monitor setup. Installing the updated with jockey also failed. The only solution I have found is the one Tony posted to uninstall fglrx and reinstall some other packages.

Are you saying that you got the radeon driver to work? How so?

Hey pretto, Hi, thanks for reporting this issue during the development period of Ubuntu. I notice there's not been further comments to the bug report since the release came out, would you mind updating us on the status of it in the release? Are you still able to reproduce the issue?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 856312] Re: Cant set resolution with two monitors
In a fresh install of Oneiric, I had a dual screen setup with 3D capability adequate for compiz effects. Then I tried fglrx but had issues with the dual monitor setup and setting resolutions with amdcccle so I uninstalled fglrx. However, it seems that there are some after effects of having had fglrx installed which mean some packages need to be reinstalled. These steps got me back to a clean dual monitor setup with the free radeon driver for both a radeon 5870 and a 5770. http://gurrier.wordpress.com/2011/10/30/amd-video-problems-in- ubuntu-11-10-oneiric-ocelot/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/856312 Title: Cant set resolution with two monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/856312/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

It looks like that's a genuine driver restriction. I didn't think that fglrx had this restriction, though.
