** Description changed:

  I have a HP a1250n computer, with 2gb ram and a dedicated 250gb hard
  driver for ubuntu, dual booting with Vista. This is a brand new install
  of Intrepid, not an upgrade.
  
  I have used Envy in the past (Hardy install), and it worked fine. But
  now I have tried all of the methods I could find, EnvyNG, the Restricted
  drivers in the repository and the Catalyst driver directly from ATI, not
  of them work. And I don't know for what reasons, all of them seem
  different.
  
  The first thing I did, was try the restricted driver as Intrepid said
  there was one for my computer. When I rebooted, the logon screen was a
  mess, could not see anything. So I did a CTL ALT f1 to login to the
  console and did an apt-get install envyng-core. That installed fine, but
  after running envyng -t and rebooting, the same thing happened on the
  logon screen. So I again did the CTL ALT f1 and did the envyng
  --uninstall-all and rebooted. This time there was a dialog saying that
  there was "some" problem  with the driver and that the system would boot
  in low-graphics mode. And there were some options to continue in low-
  graphics mode, one for configure and one for troubleshoot. I tried each
  one of them, but still nothing good happened. After that, I went to the
  ubuntu forums and saw that ATI has catalyst drivers out for this card,
  so I tried to install those using the method they say in their document.
  Again, no joy.
  
- So it is obvious I am missing something, but not sure what it is. Envy
- worked for me in Hardy, but not now. The other methods are new to
- Intrepid (as far as I know), and they don't work either. Any help here?
