Public bug reported: I've got a iMac with ATI Radeon HD 4670 running Ubuntu 12.04 (also tried 11.10, same results). Opensource driver works relatively well, except that Unity 3D is almost completely unusable and buggy.
Tried both, the installer from AMD and fglrx from jockey, the behavior is the same. I installed the latest Catalyst driver, rebooted and got a black screen. Trying to switch to a TTY console after trying to start Xorg doesn't work. I need a reboot each time to test. >From xorg.log: [ 245.672] (EE) fglrx(0): Output LVDS enabled but has no modes [ 245.672] (EE) fglrx(0): Display Infrastructure Failed [ 245.672] (EE) fglrx(0): PreInit failed [ 245.672] (II) fglrx(0): === [xdl_xs111_atiddxPreInit] === end Full log: http://pastebin.com/ppkSFB70 ** Affects: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: - I've got a iMac with ATI Radeon HD 4670 running Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04. + I've got a iMac with ATI Radeon HD 4670 running Ubuntu 12.04 (also tried 11.10, same results).
