** Description changed: Tried to install fglrx drivers but installation fails. jockey.log is attached. After installation fails I rebooted as required, but system cannot boot anymore. I only get a black screen. Tried with kernel linux- image-2.6.39-020639rc7-generic and linux-image-2.6.38-02063806-generic (current kernel version linux-image-2.6.38-8-generic is not working on my system). None of these worked. Tried with recovery mode but the system does not boot as well and remains stuck during "unpacking initramfs". - To fix this I had to set kernel parameter nomodeset and uninstall fglrx - manually. After that the system is restored. + To fix this I had to set kernel parameter nomodeset and uninstall fglrx manually.
