13.2beta6 ( amd-driver-installer-
catalyst-13.2-beta6-linux-x86.x86_64.zip ):
still no luck on my HP 4540s, again it fails with invalid BIOS message.
But again it fails reasonably, no crash anymore, just error message in Xorg.log.
I did report it as http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=701 ...
blank screen with 13.2 beta for me, but the problem is now elsewhere.
Xorg.log:
[25.961] (II) LoadModule: "fglrx"
[25.961] (II) Loading
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xorg/extra-modules/extra-modules.dpkg-tmp/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so
[26.712] (II) Module fglrx: vendor="FireGL - AMD Tec
I did check the BIOS, the ATI radeon was enabled, now with "Intel only"
setting the GLX/OGL still works, so something got fixed on my Kubuntu
installation while I was trying out different PPAs for drivers.
That said, I would still like to have radeon 3D working (like it was in
12.04). :)

@Nick:
I haven't tried fglrx with xorg-edgers, only default xorg-video-intel +
xorg-video-ati, as the synaptics (touchpad and some keyboard stuff too
on my notebook) keeps crashing, I was too lazy to try anything more. But
it boots into X, just as original repository version, so the intel+ati
work
"* This patch has enabled many users to have their hybrid systems
working. No reported regressions so far"
^^ not true, the Nick's PPA packages do *NOT* work for me. (intel driver
does crash straight away when vga switching is disabled in BIOS, before
fglrx comes into play, X crashes after loading
intel-video from xorg-edgers PPA works well too (kernel 3.7.0, etc..
whole PPA), so the only crashing intel-video driver is from Nick's PPA.
I thought only some removal of obsolete code was reverted on that one,
so how comes it doesn't work? :)
Anyway, I didn't got further in the bruise lee advice
@Gareth #65
I'm a developer too, and after all those years *I* don't care who's fault it is
either, I feel just like ordinary user: 12.04 worked, 12.10 is crap (took me 4h
on work day to revert to working X).
Installing packages from PPA didn't help me, I still get:
"(EE) this is a Muxless..."
summary: it works sufficiently well for me to be used, although some
polish wouldn't hurt. But for me this case is closed.

Kubuntu 9.04 + Radeon X1300 - No dual monitor option in system settings

Testing Kubuntu 10.04 RC (386 desktop CD image), live session behaviour:
driver [OK]
KDE4 system settings - Display:
default: cloned view [OK ? I would prefer dual view, but cloned is probably
more safe for live session.]
after changing position of the secondary output from cloned to "Right of"
I'm testing it with 9.10 now.
With default xorg.conf I still get:
"xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 1280x1280 (desired size 2560x1024)"
After changing xorg.conf, the "xrandr --output DVI-0 --right-of VGA-0
--auto" *WORKS*.
Visiting System settings -> Display will reconfigure X back to clone

I don't think this is duplicate. From the #362061: "I am able to set a big
desktop in gnome using the same driver"
If that would be the case, I would be able to configure it by hand trough
xorg.conf and xran
