Ok, it does kinda seem like it was the amd graphics driver that did it, even though ubuntu said it wasn't activated. It must have messed with the configurations, which was enough to cause the problem.
And then installing it successfully didn't fix things, as it was the configurations which are the problem maybe? In any case, having successfully installed the proprietary driver, I was then able to successfully uninstall it (one can't uninstall what isn't installed right?) That fixed my dual screen problem. However, in uninstalling that, it seems to have turned off compiz, which I assume is the cause of my fancy new panel not appearing. I had to create a shell file just to open bash, so that I could open a browser, so I could make this complaint! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/858025 Title: amdcccle crashes in 11.10 beta when trying to enable dual monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/858025/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
