I am another unfortunate user who tried to build opencv 2.4.9 on ubuntu 13.10 and ended up with an unusable system. My hardware is AMD A6 with Radeon Graphics card.
I had the AMD catalyst drivers installed in my machine, I couldn't recover back to my old drivers, I didn't find this page when I was searching for a solution. I tried to upgrade to 14.04 using the command line boot up sequence expecting that to reinstall the drivers and fix everything, but that was not to be. So I tried to re-install 14.04 using a live CD, for some reason it failed on the first attempt. I ended up getting in to Busybox shell and my previous ubuntu 13.10 partition had become unbootable nor was it recognised by the live CD on further attempts. Finally, I partitioned my hard disk to save my old ubuntu 13.10 installation and reinstall ubuntu 14.04 on a separate partition. This resulted in 48 hours wasted in productivity with out a bootable machine and further several hours to re-install software on 14.04. I hope whoever is incharge of opencv reads through these sob stories and fixes this before this creates pain for many. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1245260 Title: Installing libopencv-dev breaks OpenGl for Intel based gpu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/opencv/+bug/1245260/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
