Looks like you ran into an glitch trying to install or update the fglrx driver on your Lucid installation. Unfortunately, the necessary build logs were not attached to this bug report, so we cannot analyze it.
While fglrx is a proprietary driver, it includes an open source kernel driver wrapper to interface with the kernel. This chunk of code has to be re-compiled for whatever version of kernel you have installed, at the time of installation. The most typical reason why this fails is a discrepancy between the kernel version installed (or being installed) and the version(s) supported by fglrx. Another common reason is something set up incorrectly with the gcc compiler. It appears one of these things happened when you encountered this bug; however normally the errors are captured in log files and attached to the bug report. Since this didn't happen in this case, we can't say for certain what went wrong. Hopefully you have already figured out a solution. If not, consider the kernel version vs. fglrx version requirements and look for a compatible combination. If you need further help getting fglrx installed, I'd suggest looking to one of the various technical support forums, such as http://askubuntu.com. ** Changed in: fglrx-installer (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/649594 Title: package fglrx 2:8.723.1-0ubuntu5 failed to install/upgrade: fglrx kernel module failed to build _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
