got this bug when i tried to install Ubuntu 12.10 over my 12.04 LTS stable install last night on my HP AMD 64bit laptop Had a blank desktop, as you describe. managed to fix it by doing this;
sudo apt-get remove fglrx sudo reboot Now its all back to normal again (although i may not have optimal gfx drivers) :) Simon -- 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/1068661 Title: Unity does not load after installing fglrx-installer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/fglrx/+bug/1068661/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ 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
