Hi,
I've upgrade to Jaunty my HP EliteBook 8530p with an ATI HD3650 and there is no 
way to use the fglrx driver provided by Catalyst 9.4 **AND** 9.5.
I've already fired the following bugs to ATI:

http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1550
http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1568

now with the 9.5 I can grab the kernel message and I can safely reboot
the machine. See the dmesg attached for the kernel messages.

I've tryed with the following kernel:
2.6.28-11 and -12 from Jaunty
2.6.27-11 from Hardy

same result.

Since with 8.10 the flgrx worked like a charm and was very stable (with
Kernel 2.6.27-11), I suppose that the main problem is the
incompatibility with Xorg 1.6.

It should be nice to have a backport of Xorg 1.5.x to Jaunty :-)

I've already tryed to install a recompiled Xorg 1.5 from
http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3942 but it did not worked.

Now I'm using the radeonhd driver (version 1.2.5 from PPA and latest DRM
from git) but it is missing 3D acceleration.

The support from ATI is not so responsive.
