Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg-driver-fglrx
Just after making an upgrade from hardy to intrepid, I've lost my
graphics completely. Even if the xorg-driver-fglrx package was
installed, fglrx driver wasn't in use. Jockey-gtk just hanged after
trying to activate the fglrx.
I came into the tty console and tried inserting the fglrx manually. Here is
what I got:
$ sudo modprobe fglrx
[1086.656545] [fglrx:firegl_init_module] *ERROR* firegl_stub_register failed
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx
(/lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/updates/dkms/fglrx.ko): Operation not permitted.
Radeon driver works only if the xorg-driver-fglrx package is not
installed (otherwise vesa is used). It is able to do some 3D rendering
(for compiz), but hasn't got any XVideo support. Therefore, I can't play
any videos at all.
Just to be sure that this weird behaviour is not a consequence of my
configuration, I downloaded and burned the intrepid's ISO image and
booted into liveCD session. I got the same graphics behaviour on liveCD
session too.
